The exact text of the message is needed for us to know what's really going on.

If it is already downloaded go to the download folder with the usual file browser
of your computer and try opening it with that.

You do have an antivirus program, don't you? If not: Free Grisoft AVG Antivirus

You receive that message about security because LW's launch function is only intended for multimedia files like music & video. The launch function will not work with programs, etc.

With AVG, you scan your LW downld folder before opening the file you're trying to open.

Yes we know you illegally got a hold of LW Pro. Your piece of advice to get it has been edited since it falls into the Wares section of the forum rules. You called it "my Limewire PRO", well you didn't pay for it did you! So how is it yours. You are just the type of user who destroys the network. If not for LW Pro, there would be no LW. But you don't care huh! Well I don't care to help you any further either.
