I recently cleared my playlist and started to download new songs today. everything was going fine, they were transferring into my folder as normal. Awhile later I realized all the songs in my limewire libarary had turned form black to red and they wouldn't play from any location on any player!! I downloaded another song and after an hour of sitiing there it also turned red. If I try and play it says the file is corrupt or it's not compatable. ANY IDEAS?? Lost about 40 songs

Have you checked the folder that contains your music files (not your library)?

If your mp3 are turning into .exe or .zip files, you may have downloaded some malware. Read on in this thread:
