First thing is to have a virus app detect everything you dwnld. You might also want to get a spyware checker.

Depending upon the type of files you dwnld, if you add a few keywds in LW's filters this will help to eradicate much of that type of rubbish from your search results. Go to LW's menu Tools-Options & Filters & choose Keyword & enter .exe This principle is shown in detail in this following thread: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=27519 I hope this helps.
