Default Mislabelling

I don't know what you were trying to download but your experience is not unique, I downloaded what I though was a film clip (an mpg file) which turned out to be an exe file.

I deleted it, simply because it could have been a virus or some other malware.

There are a lot of fake and mislabelled files out there, no doubt planted by organisations paid by the RIAA, MPAA, etc. primarily to slow down and/or sabotage P2P networks.
