you should enable the windows firewall, or download a free one such as ZoneAlarm

you should also get some Virus protection such as AVG Free

WLM is probably blocking files as it knows you have no way of protecting yourself if they are viruses

No I had AVG while it was going on...Figured AVG was the cause so I un-installed it (i still have Norton, among others) sot hat can't be it. And my firewall was disabled before and it still accepted files.

i find that norton causes more problems than it solves, haha.

is your subscription up to date?

all i can suggest is checking the settings on the file transfer tab in options, perhaps using them to enabling a virus scan upon file transfer completion and seeing if that helps.

i don't know how you have so many problems with WLM, no-one else seems to experience this sheer multitude of problems!
