Dont get me wrong it's very easy getting viruses etc from some p2p software be it limewire, kazaa & yes even torrents now and again. I remember starting out on p2p in the old Morpheus days and I was forever getting shit installed on my pc as I hadn't a clue what I was doing but once someone points you in the right direction away from those crappy p2p programs it's all plain sailing from there

Don't get your knickers in a knot. There are some good Bittorrent sites out there, but come on, whether they are good or bad, 90% of the traffic through them is illegal. Its like saying hey, I'm a reputable burglar, I'll never leave a mess when I steal your TV!!!

I'd never heard of it before and was using AVG but had a few probs with it. This was recommended in a copy of Micro Mart a few months back and I can't fault it at all.
Tis free too which is a bonus

Even my ISP doesn't rate Norton, first thing they ask if ever I ring up Tech Desk with a problem is... 'Do you have Norton installed?' and when I say 'No' they say 'Good'.
