I just downloaded from here:

http://www.racesimcentral.net/

The top link is the file:

http://www.racesimcentral.net/

I downloaded that file, and inside is a single program, Morpheus.exe.

This a virus? Looks fishy so I didn't run Morpheus.

???  Don't know what to tell ya.  I just downloaded that same file from
the link you provided.  Upon opening it with WinZip, all I see are 554
alien setups for various tracks in GPL.  Maybe try again?

Aha! Mystery is solved. I am using Go!Zilla download manager and apparently there
are some files on other servers with the same name that are not the same as the file
from the original source.

Solution - if you use a download manager, remove the mirror sites from the server
list.

I was just going to ask about that...
Seems to me like GoZilla have been "hacked" or something like that lately..

For the last month or so I've seen superweird  "hits" when GoZilla search
for another
location of the file..And wouldnt you know... must of the so called hits I
get is *** or
stuff from the "underword"

Sometimes the hits you get done even have the same filename!

Could be a secret something sent from Huttu's home planet.
