I was told that it's very dangerous to run a p2p program as the hacker would attack your laptop and steal your files. is that true?

Btw, we can't run a p2p program if we had been activated the firewall program. right?

Yes, as long as computers interacts with another, it offers such risks. Thus it's advisable to make sure you're running a firewall, up-to-date antivirus software, and etc etc to _minimize_ such risks.

Not really, normally firewall must configure to block else it usually allows.
I was able to use BitComet @ Timezone-Starbucks though. laugh.gif

Have you try other p2p programs? smile.gif
