Something with as little risk of spyware or viruses. Thanks all. Pretty easy. Some info...http://dessent.net/btfaq/ An easy starter BT client, (No Java) http://pingpong-abc.sourceforge.net/ I still use it today. Like all life on the NET, Safe Hex is key. Know your sources, scan all you downloads before using, opening them. Have fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something with as little risk of spyware or viruses. Thanks all. BT is very easy to use. There are several different clients to choose from. You'll find one of your liking. Just scan all downloads as Mactron stated. I posted something on the boards a while back about BT and spyware.
