Hi I usually don't have problems with Limewire. I have many completed downloads that are videos, audio etc and most of them are under a windows media player file (the small icon to the left of the download - windows media player) I recently done something without knowing that I did it, and now all my audio and video files (previously windows media player files) are zipped programs (the small icon to the left is a small yellow folder with a grey vertical line down it) and none of the files work anymore?

How can I change it back to having Windows media player files for my audio and video files?

Thanks in advance.

That's caused by a virus.

Try scanning your computer with AVG free. Be sure to update it before you scan.

WARNING: Viruses on network you should be aware of!

The zip files contain viruses, your old files were deleted. You might be able to get your them back using a file recovery program. File recovery advice
