keister - it's not the virii that's the main issue with p2p. It's the open port entry into the computer's memory that's the problem. Virii make themselves very evident. Their intent is to be malicious and obvious but a TCP/IP probe or an BIOS probe or a FTP probe.....if you were a non-techie (as most people are), would you be able to tell if someone sent one over and had their hand in your cookie jar?
best possible solution is to not use p2p to avoid it.
