Maybe give some free advice about: Computers?
its not the programs themselves that carry viruses, its the files you download. so it really doesnt matter what you use, you will get viruses at roughly the same frequency. i use kazaa lite k++ its a relatively popular one, and at least a couple meassures to protect you from viruses, and is also completely free from adware and spyware (make sure you get lite, regular kazaa is choke full of adware). from experiance with a few programs, i like kazaa lite the best, bit torrent is good, but its best for movies, and episodes of tv shows youve missed, for music soomething like kazaa lite k++ is best.

Do not get bearshare, that's a horrible program. I have two suggestions...
eithe Utorrent or Bittorrent (which is completely free of viruses, but not as fast as Utorrent). And just so you know, it's pretty hard to get viruses. Just stay away from suspcious files and anything ending in .exe
www.utorrent.com
www.bittorrent.com

those free programs that let you pirate music are always going to have viruses. limewire, morpheus, kazaa, winmx, whatever else there is now. i know because i had to get a new computer. if you want free music, download real rhapsody. it doesn't let you actually download the music/videos, but you can access them for free and create playlists and stuff. however, you can't put the music on your ipod or anything because technically you don't own the music. itunes is the best nonfree music downloading service i've tried. you can also buy from amazon, walmart, and other places. but it's illegal to actually download music to your pc without paying for it, and virus-free, ad-free services don't offer that. i'm not trying to be a killjoy here, but those free music providers really do mess up your computer and i'd advise you to either use real rhapsody for free music or not download music at all. happy downloading :) EDIT: wtf, mate? you gave me a 4 but said thanks? how the hell does that make sense?
