[quote=gorgeousji;255851]i'm just new here and i never had a problem with limewire until today...all my downloaded files especially the audio files was converted into .exe or zip files...i tried to unzip a few files and gave me an icon which is labelled setup,but are not working...with the rest, a pop up message was shown say that the file is corrupted.
i have been trying to figure this out the whole day and am really getting frustrated!
why would the files be changed int an .exe file? and it all shows the same file size.
i've already tried scanning my my whole system for virus and adware or spyware but the does not detect anything.
is there still a way to fix the files which i collected for more than a year now?
there must be a way to solve this problem and salvage all my downloads.
please help me!

Gorgeous... I am new here too, and all the files of movies or videos that I would like all seem to be in zip files, and when I download I get a message from my virus software that the file is 'corrupted' or 'malware' or 'virus' and even if I take the chance and try to open the file I get a message that there are no files to extract from the zip file... I don't seem to be able to find any movie files (or very few) that are in avi, or mpg most are zip and they apparently are useless.. what do I do with the zip files? or how can I get them to work.
