Default Dead mp3 downloads?

Hiya,

I'm a newbie to limewire so some help would be GREAT! Every mp3 file that i succesfully download seems to be corrupted in some way.

itunes and windows media player dont recognsie the files. Even the media player in Limewire does nothing when i try to click play on the file in the library.

I have tested jpegs and they display correctly so i presume my setup is all ok?

If anyone can give some advise i would really appreciate it!

Thanks guys

Aaron

i've had a read about and seen a familiar pattern...

All of the mp3 simply don't load in itunes (no matter how you try to import them) If you select "open with windows media player" it tells me that the file has some unfamilar compontents and may diplay unpredictable behaviour - do i wnat to continue? When i click yes, Firefox launches a new window and i'm promoted to download a binary file masking itself as a codec plgin to play the file.

I have always stayed away from limewire because of all the crap that floats about on it...

So far every mp3 i have searched has turned out to be a malicious little beep beep beep, does anyone know how to get good reuslts with propper mp3 files?
