Default Corrupt Zip Files

I'm sorry if this has been posted before... I just came to the forums. Anyways though I tried downloading a certain computer game when I was using Limewire and it came from a very reliable source... or so said Limewire. However, after about two hours of finally downloading the zip file, I tried unzipping it and it said that there was nothing to unzip. I was like "wth..."

So basically I had a zip file of 200MB+ with nothing in it on my computer... Anyone know why that happened and/or how I can fix it?

LoL. I suppose that's why my friend recommended that I use BitTorrent if I want to download games but there's so many faulty trackers out there and my computer is set to a DMZ and BT still wouldn't freaking work...

Anyways this one guy that I'm talking to in a chat room said that he just tried one of the torrents on suprnova.org and said that it was working... but I tried that same one several times when I last had BT on my computer and the stupid thing didn't work so I don't think I'm going to waste my time trying that again. LoL.

The donkey network is the number one for games, try eMule.

To avoid fakes you should only use links from homepages.
