Unintended Risk of File Sharing

without comments

I’ve long since been told by people more knowledgable than me that if you have file sharing software on your computer, you will have virus/spyware problems.  It doesn’t matter how good your virus scan is.  But, apparently, some people are now able to use file sharing programs to hack into your computer and steal your identity.  Is free music really worth all this headache?  For $15 a month, you can have a subscription to Napster or some other legal music downloading site.
