The answer to this question is both yes and no. FrostWire the p2p client itself will not give you a virus. The software is clean. However, if you happen to download an infected file (let's say an infected torrent file for example) you may download a virus. I have used FrostWire and have never contracted a computer virus from it but that doesn't mean you won't. I would suggest that you never use a (Gnutella) client like FrostWire to begin with. What I suggest you do use is a good Bittorrent client like Utorrent (a pure Bittorrent network client) and download your files from a reputable torrent site like BtJunkie.org. Sites like this one have forums where users leave comments on the files in question. Also the files are verified by the community. So you won't ever need to worry about downloading a virus. Remember that a file that is heavily seeded will more than likely never contain a virus. http://www.sectone-pc-solutions.com/

It can. When using Frostwire, which is illegal, any file you've downloaded onto your computer could contain malicious software. If you plan on using Frostwire, be sure to have an Antivirus program (Windows Defender, Norton, etc.)
