Firon Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 utorrent itself has no viruses, but like anything else that can download stuff from the internet, the content you'll find can potentially have malware. You should always have a good antivirus for that reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ice95132 Posted July 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 ok thanks but what is the best way to protect it is there something i can run before a file is downloaded Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 6, 2008 Report Share Posted July 6, 2008 Any modern antivirus will have a realtime scanner to check your files once they're finished, before you actually open them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jewelisheaven Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Limewire uses more than just bittorrent. Bittorrent is a protocol for geting specific data.. it doesn't rely on a "shared folder" http://dessent.net/btfaq/#what Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
