Downloading Programs?
 
Whenever I download a program, and I click on it to run it, it doesn't come up. I double-click it and like something comes up [like a little gray box] and then just goes away. How can I run programs that I download on Limewire?

Many programmes are marked as OSX, but are in fact .exe which will not work on Mac..... misslabled for fome reason by idiots:)

The files you should look for are .dmg but sometimes you will not know what they are unless you have downloaded them.

Personally I steer well clear of Programmes on the network and only obtain them from 100% trusted sources, and Gnutella is most certainly not one. but I know good progs can be found, and at least we Mac users don't have to worry about viruses .... (yet), so a bad download will not destroy our computers:)
