Why is the file corrupted / Why is the file already full size?
Certain BitTorrent clients "pre-allocate" the file when you start downloading. This is why it seems
the
file is already complete on your harddrive. But don't be fooled by
this: the contents of the file is still empty. Your BitTorrent client
will
"fill in" the parts of the file as they come in. Only when it says Download Succesful (or similar message) is the file complete!
