Default Newbie needing answers

Greetings
I have just downloaded limewire, paid for it and it appears to be working on some downloads however, I keep getting a Media Usage Rights with a play exe is this safe? When you put your cursor over it it says play sudoko. I have saved it but not run it yet. Does this mean I will be charged for downloading the music? I have tried to find the saved file now and can't find it under search as I was going to run an antivirus on it. Sorry for the inane questions but am a Newbie.
Thanks

You should never ever open a file that you don't know what it is, especially an executable. P2P networks are loaded with viruses, but they can be avoided if you use a little common sense.

Check the file sizes and don't d/load anything smaller than 2000KBs(2MBs). Keep your anti-virus updated and scan regularly. See http://www.gnutellaforums.com/open-d...uld-aware.html.

Check files with bitzi before d/loading. See How to use Bitzi Web Lookup

See: Fake files showing up in search results

Also: Problems with the search
