hey guys,
im new at this limewire thing and well not havin much luck at it. when you download a zip file how can you unzip it? (or can you) any how i would love to watch these movies on here but im stuck.

Hiya and welcome !

Simple... For WinZIP

go to

WinZip® - The Zip File Utility for Windows - Zip/Unzip, Encrypt/Decrypt

and download the trial version.

And, also

WinRAR archiver, a powerful tool to process RAR and ZIP files

for WinRAR (and just about everything else).

Many people use WinZIP only for .zip files and WinRAR for everything else.
This is easy to do if you simply set the 'Associations' correctly in the configuration/preferences setup page.

As always, be careful with 'zipped' (compressed) files...
MANUALLY scan them with your anti-virus software BEFORE opening.
