I’ve downloaded the files via torrent and they certainly look legit. I don’t think they’re fake. It is nearly 155MB of data and over 4,000 files. It looks like the contents of just about any shared resource on a small office network in America...except for the data contained in the files, of course.

If it is a fake, it is a very clever fake that used legit files mixed with the planted data.

Same here. Same conclusion. If this is a hoax, it is the most elaborate I've ever heard of. Check the document relating to volcanic eruptions and mean temp variation. volc.doc in the Documents folder.

If hackers forged that one, they have taken it to an art form. Even the timestamps on some of these go back to 2000.

People are already posting the more interesting files to the internet. Here is a really terrible photochop that was contained in the files...just awful.
