Hmmm, it definatley sounds strange...You are also right about the fake files...
When this starts to happen try getting some new Ultrapeers...

Go to your Connections Tab in limewire, if it's not showing up go to Veiw > Show/Hide and make sure the connection tab has a tick next to it...
Then click on the Hosts and remove them and let Limewire search for some more...
