Angry thousands of 851.7Kb Zip files containing "setup.exe"

While searching for all kinds of files on Limewire I almost allways get hundreds of the SAME file appear. It has thousands of different names but allways appears as a 851.7Kb zip file containing a single file called "setup.exe". It doesnt install anything and I urge everyone NOT to open it or even download it ...my guess is it is probably a virus. Given the number of these files on the network I expect it is might be a sabotage attempt on Limewire or peer2peer file sharing to simply clog up the system.

My question to Limewire is ...are you going to do anything about it?
