Default downloading in wrong format

i dont know why, but just recently (up until now it worked fine), has started downloading all media files (both music and video) in realplayer format, not in windows media player format.
i didnt ask it to, and cant find out how to change it back, but now i have to find the saved file each time i want to open it, as my realplayer program doesnt work, plus i dont like that program.
not a major problem, just an annoying one, and wondered if anyone had any ideas..
any help would be much appreciated.

Default

It's more than likely because your default player has been changed...
What you need to do is...
Go to your sahred folder (outside of limewire)
Right Click on one of your files
Select open with
Select your Media player and then tick the box where it says always use this program for this file type...
