Cannot use Gnutella safely - EVER!!! I had heard of Gnutella & Limewire, but was using bittorrent safely.
Decided to try Limewire & Gnutella - download speeds much better.
BUT - in three months of downloading, I have found 85% of ALL files downloaded thru Gnutella to be seriously infected with trojans, etc.
Because I have good security this has caused nothing but annoyance, but because of Gnutella's lack of security & seemingly malicious and/or careless user base, I will no longer use Limewire or Gnutella.
The fact is this problem will kill the usefullness of peer-to-peer faster than any government.
Back to good old slow-but-safe bittorrents. Macbeans |
