Movie Download Help Needed
 

Hi!

Am I loving LimeWire or what? Thanks, guys. Music Is All Around me Now (O:

BUT I am in no way a techie and so have a few questions, the first I will ask in this thread:

What is the most efficient type of file to download movies? I remember one called ".avi" for instance. Thing is that these files seemed so huge compared to how much memory my computer has. Here are my machine's stats:

Dell Inspiron 8100 (Laptop)
Windows ME (I can hear the groans, I know)
128 MB RAM (38% available)

In addition to the best type of file to download - space wise - will I be needing any other programs/media players besides these to watch the movies. I have these:

~Real Player (free version)
~Windows Media Player (free version)
~QuickTime Player (free version)
~InterVideo WinDVD Player (3.0)
~InterVideo WinDVD Player (5.0 ....in trial period)

Thanks!
