So we fight over symantics "he said/she said". I'm not blaming developers, just think they could have developed a screening method to prevent virus' and spyware from getting in. Most people who share files don't have a reason for passing some unwanted bug. There are people who DO want to hijack your personal info or to install PUP's. Maybe if you believe in conspiracy theories some companies don't want gnutella to ever achieve a working status as it would allow users to not have to rely on their servers and therefore no advertising revenue; ie popups .

'symantics' (sic) is a kind of variation of an ancient word from the era of Peter Nortondamos !
