I am running a Mac using OSX (10.4.10). I have 4 gb ram and 320gig hard drive space. I have been using Limewire for quite some time now and my library of songs is quite extensive. All of a sudden every song I attempt to download tells me it has detected a corruption and do i wish to continue. I have tried both yes and no. When I select no, of course it deletes the file and when I select yes it finishes the download, puts it in my ITunes but only plays about 3 seconds of the song and repeats that same 3 seconds throught the entire length of the song. Can anyone help me with this. I am going to DIE without being able to use LW!!!!

2. T3 Spammers; mp3 Bit-Rates Versus File Sizes (click on link)

Sounds like many of those are in fact spammed audio files deliberately corrupt by groups working for the RIAA, etc.
