Default Limewire file sizes

all my file sizes are showing 851.7 kb for every program I look for.

I am sure they are not all this size, is there something wrong with my Limewire

Tyese files are viruses or spam and they are no fault of Limewire. If you use Search ... above right, and search for 851.7 you will find a lot of posts about them.

Think very carefully before you download any programme and ensure you are running up to date virus protection.

Also think before downloading a programme that is 851.7 kb in size .... Could any programme be that size!!!!??

This has been said time and time again in this forum, those 851.7 kb files are viruses, leave them alone.

Yes delete, remember always delete files Norton AV says has viruses in them because those files are there for one thing only, they are virus delivery systems.
