Default Can't play Mp3 download

Hallo, I'm a new user of LimeWire.
Now I have a problem! After downloading my first Mp3 files, I can't play them, not in Winamp, not in Windows Media Player or Real Player!
They are just 1 second long! But the size is more than 3 MB!
What goes wrong? Who can help me?

Try these suggestions.

What I have done that works really well is to go to Tools > Options > Filter > Keywords and then add these file extensions: .wma, .exe, .rar, .html, .com, .zip, .mov. Be sure to tick apply and O.K. There are a ton of fake and corrupt files with these extensions. I will only download mp3 files that are larger than 2000kb - 3000kb. Also make sure thay have a bitrate.

Hope this Helps.
