Malicious files often use names like Zippyshare.com - 1 (2).mp4.exe . If your computer is set to "hide extensions for known file types," you will only see the .mp4 part. Clicking this runs an executable program (malware) instead of playing a video.
Since the original site closed, several "clone" or "mirror" sites have appeared. These sites often use the Zippyshare name to lure users into downloading potentially harmful content.
If you didn't specifically intend to download a file with this name, delete it immediately.
