A. Update your LW version: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml This will stop those spam files causing your browser to open.

B. Learn to use Bitzi & check the tips here: Movie download issues

C: Get a decent video player which has in-built codecs & doesn't have license problems with diallers, etc. We recommend this player: VLC - (click on link) _ (choose nearest mirror site)

3. Unsecure means it can't be trusted. See What you should know about WMA/WMV Files

2. Many files smaller than 100 MB are spammed porn or similar. Those ones are .mov files! Learn to recognise & ignore or put .mov into your keyword filter; How to use the Keyword Filter
