Cannot open downloaded files
 

I have a very weird problem.... I can download files (not always very easily, but that's a different matter) of different kind, such as zip, sit, etc. but everytime I try to open them, they launch the program Limewire itself. In the General Info it tells me that they are Limewire files, but how do I manage to actually view the file itself?
In the Limewire program I cannot find a way to open the actual file.
Thank you

What OS are you using?

For zip files, open the program you currently use (Winzip, PKzip, etc) and set it as default.

Limewire Documents Don't Open
 

I am getting the same problem lately. Every file I download, has not problem downloading, but ends up a dud, and can't be opened by any means. They are all unknown file format labeled "Limewire Document" or just "document" in my shared file. I used to be able to use an Ituner application to convert them to mp3's. On the rare occasion when a file does open, it just takes me back to the Limewire Search Screen and nothing happens. I want to upgrade to LimeWire Pro, but don't want to waste my money if downloaded files cannot be opened. I am using Mac OS 9.2 and Mac OS 10.2.

for OS 9, see here http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=22698

for OSX, click once on the file in the Finder, and set the default application to open the file with the Get Info command.
