Unhappy 851.7Kb ----virus

Whenever I do a search for a program, I always end up with heaps of hits. But Ive noticed that they all have the same file size ie 857.1kb. Whenever I download these files (usually with .zip extension) my Norton Antivirus 2005 goes ballistic saying that it stopped all these virus attacks.

This is starting to get annoying as I can never find the program I want. How do i stop these files form appearing, does this happen to anyone else.


Win XP, Lime Wire Pro.

Try going into Tools>Options>Filters and type in 851.7. That might help stop the flood of viruses!
