Hi,
I wonder if any of you have experienced this problem.
Mp3 files which played fine before later start playing parts from other
songs (some of which you don't even have.)
This has been happening to me for over a year. I thought it might be a
virus, but my virus scan finds nothing. I deleted the corrupted mp3 files
and then many months later some new downloaded files (which were scanned
virus free) become corrupted. It's weird. Now I downloaded this program
called MP3val which detects problems with mp3's and supposedly repairs
them(however, I tried repairing some of my corrupted mp3's and it doesn't
work). I read somewhere that changing the properties of the mp3 file to
"read me only" might help. I suspect this problem might spread and affect
other mp3's in other folders. Anyway, I'm just starting to scan all my mp3
files and delete all which have a problem and set all the others to "Read Me
Only" and place those files on a seperate hard drive off line with no access
to the internet. Some of these files might be infected when downloaded and
might infect others which were previously safe on your hard drive. Anyone
have any experience with this sort of thing?
Thanks for any help on this.
