problem
 
there seems to be a virus that somewons intenntionally putting on limewire -
recently sumone asked me to download a song for them on limewire i cant remember what he called this song but when i was about to download it for him i relised the smal file size and because i dont trust this guy anyway i didnt download it but recently the same person has asked for
Fm Crew feat. Eyes - Girlz
and also
Kano - Like They Used To

ok whenevr i go to download these dsong for him they both come out to be a small file size exactly if i remember right 130.8 kb - both the same and im ssure the same of the other song he asked me for - allways comes to which is unusual for a song and t is very weird all these songs are the same size - therfore i think that these ' songs' are all actually simply the same virus that has been renamed - i am not sure about this what do u sugest i do?

Hi you,
You're right to avoid these files! They're junk. More & more of these are popping up all the time. If the file size doesn't look right, don't attempt a download. Also, stay away from files named all in capitals L_I_K_E T_H_I_S.

There's a sticky in the Download/Upload Problems section - Major topics for download/upload help. Within that you'll find info about corrupt songs, bitrate versus file size, T3 spammers. Have a read of it:D
