I'm using Windows XP, and it's about 2 years old. This problem only occurs with one or two movies out of 40, not all movies. And, as soon as I take them out of the Shared folder, then the folder is fine. I can't even put them inside the Windows Shared folder because then it crashes. So, they are sitting on my desktop. I'm just thinking that there must be some reason this is happening, I just don't know what it is.

According to my XP's specs, I have 512 MB of total physical memory. I think that's RAM. I know I have a 160 GB hard drive.

This problems only happens when I download movie files from Limewire, which leads me to believe there's something attached to the file, or it needs a codec of some sort. It's frustrating to have the only copy of a movie (that I find on Limewire) cause the Windows Shared folder to crash every time the file is inside the folder. No one else can share this file because it causes crashes to the Shared folder.
