Can't say I did.  BitTorrent is supposed to hash check every piece it 
downloads.  When BitTorrent says it's done, you *should* be reasonably 
certain that the files you have are what you're supposed to have.

I know that two blocks failed the check during my download, and BT 
downloaded those blocks again.  My isos match the MD5SUMS file.
