Downloading is like sex. You can have it with protection or stupidly take a chance. Personally, I scan everything I download before opening it.

I got so fed up with Limewire today, I finally decided to try downloading via a BitTorrent.
Downloaded the program about half hour ago and have just finished my first download, Avatar, a 2.4GB file, in 20 MINUTES @ 964.9KBs!!!
AMAZING!!!!
Clicked on 3 different links, each one seemed to be downloading so quickly, alarm bells started ringing...so I kept stopping the download thinking it was a fake/virus like those on Limewire...third time I noticed the speed it was downloading so gave it the benefit of the doubt and let it finish....WOW! It was indeed genuine...
Truly amazed, and so p'd off that I've only just discovered this!
Sorry...just had to get that off my chest....

In one month, I downloaded a few demo games on the PS3, a few albums from the site I use (free) and streamed one or two matches and received a letter from my ISP saying that I have been downloading too much and that my speed was being capped for 3 months.
Just take it easy mate
