destructionfever Posted October 1, 2005 CID Share Posted October 1, 2005 New to using bittorrent. If anyone has any tips on how to stay safe from viruses,trojans, and spyware please let me know. Also, if someone were to get a videogame from bittorrent...How would that person burn it? hypothetically speaking of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raptors892004 Posted October 1, 2005 CID Share Posted October 1, 2005 I'll say use an antivirus and peer guardian for bittorrent.. and the search on the internet for some free burning program if you need it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dilatedpeoples28 Posted October 2, 2005 CID Share Posted October 2, 2005 Your Isp doesnt have time to look at EVERY single download of EVERY single ip address. Exceptionally when ur ISP is Comcast like me. Your safe for right now but who knows in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your safe for right now but who knows in the future. They may not monitor the name of every single file, but they do keep logs of every IP (web site, p2p server, etc.) you connect to.

Dilatedpeoples28 Posted October 2, 2005 CID Share Posted October 2, 2005 Private trackers only have registered "special" users, so most of the time there isnt as many peers on each torrent, but ur right they all seed alot, so u download faster.
