MACs Dear Hobo
I have re-read what KaiserChief said and you are right, he has not said his MAC was hacked, he was just wondering if it could be.
However, MAC or PC, I still believe that any computer connected to the internet, including P2P and any other public network, without adequate protection is vulnerable to hacking or having something like a Trojan or worm planted on it.

In answer to your clarified question, LW does not give P2P users unlimited access to your hard drive, they can only access your shared folder.
You can double check this by going into Options and examining your LWs default settings.
However, as you know, if you accidentally downloaded a trojan or virus, specifically crafted to compromise your MACs security, then your HD will be exposed.
