I suggest you read up on this a little bit. If bittorrent was SO dangerous, then why do we not read about all the Bad Things happening to all of us who use bittorrent to file share and who open up our ports? Torrent files such as the ones on this site and many other music sharing sites do not cause problems with the users. The contents of these files are clearly listed under the Files List in the first post of any torrent thread. Those are the ONLY files you will be getting from any other person you are connected to via that torrent. Someone cannot sneak any other file past your bittorrent client except the ones listed for that torrent file because that is how bittorrent works. The only other way to get something passed you is if someone exploits some 'hole' in the bittorrent client that you are using. In order to exploit that 'hole', the would have to know where the hole is, how to exploit it, and then know your IP and what port you have open for that bittorrent client. Very highly unlikely.... unless there is some sort of bittorrent conspiracy going on and they are hiding all these cases from us.
