Right now im trying to download final fantasy 7 for the pc (its actually a real game for the pc) but when ever i download something it says its corrupted or a virus or something. And i noticed that that always happens when i downloads Programs. Why is it like that. What can i change about it

Take this into consideration when downloading p2p, it's reported that almost half of all executable files on these networks contain viruses.
All you can do is scan any file you D/L with MULTIPLE AV programs,.

Nothing is wrong with your computer. 80%+ of programs on Limewire ARE viruses and corrupt. My suggestion is to NOT download programs from Limewire.
If you REALLY feel that you don't want to buy the game and want to download it, try reading about torrents. Some information about torrents and torrenting:

Dont risk it! There is like a 50/50 chance that the file you are trying to download contains a virus. Try to find it on www.download.com

almost all programs and a lot of the video on limewire is corrupt, like trojans and viruses. I don't know what to do about it though.

never use limewire for program downloads almost all of them are viruses try useing bitcomet its alot more slower then limewire but atleast theres 99.991% less viruses and fakes then limewire and go to websites such as wtorrent.com thepiratebay.org or torrentbox.com
