Thanks very much for the suggestion, but it still does not solve the problem. It seems that limewire recreates the filetype as a limewire document. This is a bit silly, as Limewire is generally unable to open these files. The question is: how to convert the files back to something that can be opened? I've tried renaming the creator/type strings, but to no avail. So it seems limewire somehow alters the file during download.

Any developers have any clue about how to beat this *******?
