Because when I was laughing at all the files that had 23 kb I knew they had viruses.
But then I typed GTA: San andreas and there was a file that was 480MB
should I trust this?

Only if you have the Best anti-virus AND anti-spyware programs and run it through them to take out all the nasties first.

if I download anything off of Limewire I run Avast virus detector. You can use any kind of virus detector but just make sure you have it on when downloading. Avast usually detects a virus within seconds of a download if it contains a trojan or virus. and I am sure there are others out there that would do the same. Just use caution and if it looks suspicious..don't download it.

I wouldn't trust Limewire for any programs/applications. I downloaded one program once, and it turned out to be a trojan. I couldn't clean it either, so I had to do a full reformat of my entire hard drive.

No. But, if you insist on downloading it, at least scan it once you have it on your drive. You can then delete it if you have to.

dont take that chance unless you are planing to reinstall the whole system over again.
