Original Kobo problem

Hello all,
I am having a problem with my original Kobo.
First I have to say that I think it's of my own making.
I downloaded some books from, lets say, a dubious source.

Some I've had no problems with. But, there have been a couple that when I get part way through, the page turns slower, and, slower, until finally the machine just sits and does nothing. If I then leave it and come back several hours later, it still shows the same screen. I put my handy paper clip pin in the reset hole, click it, plug it into my USB port and it'll start again, only, if I try to open that book again, it does the same thing.
I don't expect an answer as to how I can fix it, I know I need to dump those books.
What I want to know is, are there corrupt books that can give a reader problems?
ps. I can read the books fine on my PC in Calibre or using Firefox plugin.
