If you try to play an mp3 or other audio file and you get a voice telling you that you need to download something - DO NOT DO IT! Immediately delete that torrent and remove data. You can try to download another torrent that contains the files you want, but do not download that one, again. The chances of that actually being a legitimate message are almost zero. I've never heard of such a message being valid. It is usually a scam to get you to go to a malicious site that will, in some way, infect your computer.

Thank you! It will not let me delete it. I have already uninstalled it, so I can't remember exactly what is said, but I think it said " Can't delete because it's attached to another file" or something like that. I downloaded one song and that worked fine, the other two had the issue. Thanks for responding!! :D
