NEVER trust software you download. For example, a downloaded bittorent client added a toolbar i EXPLICITLY asked not to have AND required a system restore to eliminate it. (the clue was that the download of a torrent i HAD NOT REQUESTED was proceeding while i could NOT Google).
NEVER trust software you download.
(NOTE: the original answer said something along the lines of "bittorrent client ok, but you can get a virus from things you download".... why did you trust the original bittorrent client download?)

∙ 7y agoIt is possible a torrent downloaded from Isohunt can contain a virus. The virus has less to do with which website the torrent was located and more to do with the torrent itself. It is always best to check the comments before downloading a torrent. Torrents are often used to violate copyrighted music and movie files which is an illegal act.
