Update to the latest version of LW: version 4.9.28

Defrag your HDD & do a disk & file check with your utilities.

If your d/l reached 100% than your files are (100% on your computer) in library -> incomplete files. Here click explore and a folder will open... don't acces them before a antivirus scan !!! but don't froget:

I have a similar problem. I have ms office 2003 student & teacher and a newbie to all this (please be patient)
How exactly do I "Defrag my HDD and do a disk and file check with utilities"? This problem only started to happen after I downloaded LimeWire 4.9.28.

All windows operating systems will have something similar. Which operating system version do you have? (eg: win 98, win 2k, win xp)

(Dagam3 that's a big improvement on your last signature. That's great! )
