Unhappy help- half my downloads failed

Hi there,

When I played my 108 downloads I noticed that over 40 of them would not play. There is a correlation between those that would not play and a message I would get when I requested a download saying: "You already have the exact same file at C: documents and settings\my name\My documents\LimeWire\saved\the name of the song"...even though the song I was downloading was completely different.

As well, most of the searches I am doing now show a box with a checkmark (saying I have already downloaded) but they are brand new searches?!

Please help!

What is going on???

What sizes are the files that won't play??

There are viruses in specific file sizes that may cause this. See Links Below for more info.

Hope this Helps.
