DVDS And vhf

[studio4610]

I am a newbee at using Limewire. I am trying to download Dvds for my son, and when I select download it downloads it very very quickly almost too quickly. Then I open file and it is telling me that I need another file to run this applicaiton. It is not telling me what I need though. My question is what applicaitons do I need to download Dvds and then burn them cause I have a superdirve in my 933 and it had a DVD burner. For instance I was trying to download a free movie for him and another free one for me and both had that error. Thanks again, I hate being the newbee, but I guess everyone has to start sometime....

I doubt you'll find any full-length DVD's on Gnutella. There are a few on eMule (check here) and lots in the newsgroups:
alt.binaries.dvd and alt.binaries.dvdr
You'll need some sort of software like GrabIt, BNR2, Forte Agent, NewsLeecher, or NewsBin Pro. I personally use BNR2, but if you're just getting started, you may want to try GrabIt or one of the others first. You'll also probably need to subscribe to a premium news server, because most ISP ones won't do for large binaries, like DVDs.
The movies on Gnutella are almost entirely DVD Rips converted to DiVx format, which I doubt you'd ever be able to convert back to an actual DVD. Even if you did, it wouldn't look or sound nearly as good as it originally did.
