New video download site busts you for illegally downloading video content as well as offers the ability to download video content using a custom client, which scans a users PC to see if the user has already downloaded copyrighted files.
MediaDefender Inc, the "leading provider of anti-piracy solutions in the emerging Internet-Piracy-Prevention (IPP) industry" has launched a website called "MiiVi" dedicated to busting those who both like to download copyrighted content as well as those who already have.
The site was apparently registered on March 11, 2007. and unfortunately who knows how many poor souls have fell victim to this latest malfeasance by an MPAA sponsored organization.
Here's proof of the site's true intent:

...AND here's a taste of the BAIT for which they are laying out for the unsuspecting noob, a nice 745MB XVID(?) copy of Batman Returns just waiting for someone to come along a take a bite. To bad this bite could cost one thousands of dollars and lead to an avalanche of letters, settlement notices, or perhaps even a "friendly" knock at the door.

This new development certainly takes the war against illegal file-sharing to new lows.
