These volunteers keep the board organized and moving. Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity) Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum. Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules. Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed.

There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks. 5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. 6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. 10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit. 13. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 All the songs I downloaded turned into Zip Folders! WHY?! And how to I fix it?! I recently downloaded LimeWire 4.12 and downloaded several songs. The next day I turned on my computer and got on Limewire, all my songs suddenly turned into Zip Folders. I tried extracting the file from one, to see what it would do, and then it said file was corrupt. I was just listening to them the day before with no problem! So what went wrong? I can't even listen to them, or download any other songs without them turning into a zip folder the next day. Please, someone help me to find out what's wrong and how to fix it!! THANKS!!!   |

 Not to sound like a "know it all" or anything, but I know it's not a virus. My fiance is a computer networking technician, and we have the best security on our computers. And I have no viruses on my computer currently. And anytime that my computer shows signs of lagging, I have him fix it. So there's got to be something else. |

| Ok...Try the search function on the top right and have a look at how many people are experiencing the same problem...This is a new virus and I really recommend that you go to one of those sites and post a Highjack this log.. It can't hurt and who knows you may be able to prove me wrong...

| Well, we found out for sure that it's not a Virus! And after waiting 5 hours for the virus scan and spyware to get done, I went to bed for the night, and started my computer, and the songs that I downloaded last night, turned into Zip files again! I think I might have to just say screw limewire and find a new download program. But I don't know! |

| Just because your AV didn't detect it doesn't mean you aren't infected... These people that create these viruses are very clever and AV's are not infallible... Could you just humour me and do a self check, if you feel you don't want to go to one of those sites to get diagnosed... Create your log and check it here... http://www.castlecops.com/HijackThis.html If your fiance is a computer networking technician what does he think could cause an mp3 to turn into a zip file ??? Also what other file extensions have you downloaded in the past?? or have you only ever downloaded mp3s....Also have you ever downloaded that "urgent limewire update" ......

| Like I said before, I am a new LimeWire user. My fiance' hasn't taken a look at it yet. He just ran the AV and Spyware. But I will try and have him take a look at it tonight. But more than likely he won't. Today hasn't been a good day for us. We had to take our boxer to the vet. He's in critical condition. We won't find out till afternoon tomorrow what's wrong with him. So I won't getting back to you for a little while. But I will give it a shot, what you suggested. Thanks again. |

| Man, as wondering Why said, Norton is a FULL PIECE OF SOFTWARE **** that is useless, try switching to free and reliable products like mine (AVG A-V, Windows Defender and Comodo Firewall), believe me, if someone asks me dor an advice on what sec. products to use, i will definitively tell them to use those apps. (Not so much RAM comsuption, and inmediat detection of viruses, malwares, and/or app leaks). And for the problem you have, i think it must be something tracking your downloads based upon any Java leak, try uninstalling Java AND Lw, then scan your system for viruses and malware, and reinstall them both, (i recomend you upgrade your Java version to 1.06), and see what you can catch.
