Default crazy zip files

i downloaded a zip file on limewire that was supposed to be an itunes music transfer program, but for some reason the program did not work and now my lime wire keeps downloading zip files on its own. every time i check my library i have 40 or 50 new zip files that i did not download. is there anything i can do to stop this?

Most people that know better leave those zip files alone and now you know why, you've picked up a virus.
