Hi MikeSA,
the use of Peer to Peer ( P2P) file sharing, torrents etc is a very effective way of infecting your computer as it is a major vector for the distribution of malicious code, Worms, Trojans, Viruses etc.,
Our Whatthetech Terms of Use, specifically preclude discussions on that topic due to the risks of infection in their use.
Here's an extract of the TOU for info:
We will not support or allow the discussion of any peer to peer (P2P) applications, except for their removal.
Regards
