Although corruption is occasionally picked up earlier - an extra check is made on completion of the file - therefore most corruption reports occur at the end of a file download.
Clicking 'OK' should continue the download as normal. It should not delete the file.
What will normally happen is that LimeWire will complete the download - build a hash (I think) which takes a while, then move the file to your save folder.
Clicking 'No' is working as designed by the sound of it.
I generally accept corrupt files but give them a thorough check once they are downloaded. Frequently the files end up as 0 bytes (empty files) - it is possible that OS X automatically hides or deletes (or doesn't allow the creation of) empty files.
80% of files corrupt sounds excessive.
But I really can't tell whether you have found a bug or are just downloading a type of file that is prone to corruption (or from multiple sources that make a habit of changing files).
