Material downloaded won't play
 
I searched on this came up empty. If I download a file, when I go to launch it, it will not play. Some will and some won't. Am I doing something wrong? I need help. I'm a new user. Thanks in advance.

Could be allot of different things type of file Mp3/.exe/wmv. It could be a corrupt file. Since you are a newbie I would suggest you read some of the sticky's provided in the forum I will give you a couple of links to some very important ones the rest is up to you.

I would suggest you read through these. The first link is about Viruses on the network which from reading your post there is a good chance you may have already downloaded one and opened it. Thus infecting your computer.

I already did a virus scan. Nothing came up. I'm clean. If I click on the let's say a song that's in my playlist, it won't play it. In the box that is in the bottom right corner of the screen. It will flash and then nothing. I've downloaded and downloaded and nothing will play. Do I need to send it some where else to play?

Try going straight to a file and selecting open with .... some other media player ... Real player for instance ... or any thing else you have. If this work, deselect Limewire player in preferences. If it does not, it seems like bad files... there will always be a few!. Let us know if this helps

I am guessing you are the fastest reader in history :D or you don't want to take the time to ready. Thats up to you it could save you allot of grief in the long run. I will get you a little closer but you are going to have to read and learn it could be allot of different things as I suggested before.
