Junior Member Guyanesediva

Although this is an old thread (Feb 2007) you need to be put right on something, when you download something (anything) using the LW app you are not downloading from a safe server, as you believe, you are downloading from other P2P computer users from around the world.

And there is no one or organisation on Earth that can guarantee that all the PCs using the gnuttella network are virus free.

So when senior forum members advise junior members to keep away from zip, rar or other other type of compressed files you should understand that we know what we are talking about and that we have the knowledge and experience to back up what we say.

If you do not understand the advice being given then ask, but you should not give counter advice based on your own incomplete knowledge.
