What type of files are you talking about - what's their file extension? Please supply more details about exactly what you do from the moment LW finishes dwnlding these files.

limewire won't open exe files because of security reasons; though there usually is a pop up saying this. limewire doesn't know if the exe file is a virus or dangerous for your computer so it won't take the risk

stupididiot69er this person uses mac OSX & most likely wouldn't have any exe files. And besides this is an old thread & this person has obviously never been back to check it. That was a month ago.

To my knowledge, Limewire will not open any program with the Launch function (no, you can't double-click it either). Again, you have to find the shared folder in your Computer and open all files from there: it's better for you.
