Unfortunately there are sponsored organisations out there attempting to prevent / hamper inspiration for sharing of copyright files. Thus, they spam the network with stupid non useful files. LW is self programmed to detect some of the most dangerous spam files & deletes them upon finish downloading because they contain viruses. Check both Virus thread: Typical virus spam file sizes - Make a note of them (click on blue link to see) and also see How to find music
