Default Virus... or worm .... or something.

ok i downloaded a exe. file and went to my shared file to open it. when i did the file just dissapeared ... a few hours later i open my limewire and theres about 600 or so new files on my shared folder. all of which are the same size "33.3 kb" with various names of differnt programs and downloads. i went to my shared file in my c: drive but they dont appear in there so i went back to my limewire and deleted them all. all was good for a few hours then i opened my limewire agian the they were all back. has anyone had this problem and if so do you know how to get rid of this

The solution is called an "Anti-virus" such as norton, mcafee et etc.. do a google search to find which one is better for you.
