    Is BitTorrent safe?

    I downloaded BitTorrent and I'm wondering if it makes your computer more prone to viruses or not. I downloaded it from BitTorrent's official website. I DO have an antivirus program that runs every night, so would it be okay?

    It would be okay if you use BitTorrent properly, but you should be aware. Some viruses are more complex that an antivirus program can't even detect and remove.

    The client is safe, but it's the users who cause the danger and don't forget it's illegal.
