[mrfreckles]

they are safe if you have antivirus software on the computer

[shosong]

for the most part they are safe, use piratebay for your search and only download from trusted users (they have a scull, green or purple). you should be fine with other ones as well but you might not want to risk it.

yeah, i've been running limewire and downloaded a lot of songs, and downloaded a few games off utorrent, just don't download that seem suspicious and just get a good anti-virus to make sure, most people are scared to download stuff, but who the hell is gonna pay a dollar a song off itunes, but yeah i haven't got any problems, if u do, just run system restore.

No P2P is safe.

[koolcat]

isohunt ...
download utorrent and a tunneler plus an antivirus (avg is good! NORTON BLOCKS JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING ON YOUR COMPUTER!! DO NOT DOWNLOAD IT!!! Its worst then vista! )
That way your computer should be safer from viruses.

no p2p program is safe.

although if you do use p2p make sure you have good security programs ect.

and good knewledge of pc's. or mac. or whatever you use.

Not always. I recommend gettting an anti-spyware/firewall program with active scanning, such as McAfee. I download torrents all the time, but if there is any infectious material, my program kills it before it has a chance to infect my PC. For the most part though, torrents aren't all that bad. Just make sure you have protection.

nope

limewire can cause viruses, but it slows down a computer, especially an old one. the new edition of limewire is better on new macs or something BUT NOT on PC's.
