Asx and mov files

[Lame-o]

When looking for video files, I had nothing but trouble when opening asx and mov(Quicktime) files. It either redirected me to another site or gave me a virus or security threat. It only took a couple of mishaps until I totally ignored downloading these files completely.

Because of this, I don't even bother opening up asx or mov files on Limewire. Unless something can be done to get rid of these morons who are causing this problem?

Also, be very wary of going for program files. I got a couple of viruses in quarantine opening up what I thought was too good to be true. Beware!

Since 90% of all mov files are identical and BS I always select all mov files I come across and mark as junk.

the same happens to me with the wmv files i found in LW. they won't play, the just open a window tring to sell me a pass to that web page. but let me give you a hint on wmv files, put the mouse over the file and if the imfo window that shows, says the same like the file, thats BULL ****. but if there's more imformation in that window (like author: Type: Date: etc....) that's a good one I know because all my files are in wmv. and I have a lot.

You can always use the Bitzi web lookup...
This is always a good idea before downloading any movies and definately programs or games......
This thread will explain what and how to use it....
