All I want to do is download a game, I've spent hours attempting it but either

It won't download at all

It downloads and my virus protection deletes the file because its infected

It downloads but is a text file or a PS2 file

It downloads but won't unzip

It unzips but won't launch

What the hell am I doing wrong ?

I've tried dozens of times and got nowhere can someone post an idiots guide please !

Stay well away from small zip files!!! See WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

When you do a search, as the results are coming in, double-click on the size column so it shows the largest files at the top of the search results. Any file that is less than 1 MB should be treated with suspicion. Don't get confused with KB as some of the viruses are about 870 KB or something like that. If you arrange the search results as I suggested, then the smaller ones that might include virii will be at the very bottom of the list.

I'm not sure what you're wanting to downld but check this post to see examples of spam: autogenerated mp3 spam results

Oh it's a game you want to downld. I missed that comment. Comments about the file might or might not be available on Bitzi database but it might be worth checking the file on bitzi to see if there's any user feedback about any particular file; How to use Bitzi Web Lookup ...
