I have done everything you said (except servers, which I will) but I have just tried to download a mp3 file. When it reached 100% then it would not go to complete status, and then appear in the incoming folder, but start downloading over again (till it reaches 100% and then again...)

Does anything appear in the log/verbose log about the file? Maybe it has permanent corruption problems.

Try to cleanup your server list, this might reduce corruptions.

So I followed the instructions given at ElChele's server topic and cleaned up all my server list.
It did the trick. Now it works. Thank you so much for your help.

No, it means that file hasn't been verified either way, ergo the verdict is inconclusive.Math is delicious!

The onus should be on probably. I've come across plenty of fake files that haven't been verified in the database yet. Such is the downside of having only one or a few people to check the veracity of the reports: response time slows considerably.Math is delicious!

But, will they confirm a fake file?
Just my 2 cents:
1. compare the file size with the known expected file sizes when applied. (lol, need some researches...)
2. check out the version coz it's often better to know the basic necessary infos to scan out those unmatched.

AFAIK, all of the fakes databases are verified by hand, so if you can trust the database admins, you can trust the veracity of the reports.Math is delicious!

Althought inconsistencies in those fields doesn't neccessarily means the file is a fake, it is highly probable that it isn't what you where looking for. The absense of these fields for mp3's and avi's is a good warning that the file might be fake as other sources where not able to decode this information from the file. However if the number of complete sources is very few it might happen that this information has not been processed yet. It is a guess work but there is usually one file that appears less fake than the others.
length
When you download a you usually have an approximate knowledge about the actual playing time. By looking for this in the search window you can guess that an mp3 that is 15 minutes is probably fake aswell as a featured movie that is 5 minutes long.
bitrate
A mp3 file is normaly 128 kbit/s or greater and a divx (avi) is greater than 1000 kbit/s. If the file is not you can be quite sure it's either fake or of poor quality.

go to the transferrs tab > right click on it > Click "Details" > and then go to the "name" tab
This way I can see what other people are downloading and what they think its called.

Now to setup the IP filter. An IP filter is a tool that blocks communication from a list of IP addresses. eMule has a built in IP filter it just needs the user to supply the list of IP's to block. Go to the "Security" section in the options screen, in the "IP Filter" enable the "Filter servers too" option and paste this link in the "Update from URL" box: http://emulepawcio.s...et/ipfilter.zip
Then click on the "Load" button and let eMule download the updated IP address list. Try to remember to manually update the ipfilter weekly. Now all you have to do is restart eMule.
