Default g1 more viruses?

i don't know whats going on latley
but is frost becoming more full of viruses
every month now since aug my norton blocks nailware or a virus and today a virus was blocked
in my 10 years of net i never got this
or are ppl disguising viruses as mp3s
i know the TOP of list are fake but this is getting be bit much
this getting annoying
no wonder ppl said years ago frost/lime are full of viruses
what do we do to stay safe

Well it would be because it's not a Frostwire or a Limewire issue, it's the Gnutella network that is being flooded with viruses....Frost and Lime are only the programs that enable you to download from the network...

Not to sure....

I use utorrent for movies and if you find the right site there are always plenty of comments that suggest if the torrent is any good or not....

For music I still use limewire, but you must make sure you scan the file before you play it.....A lot of files now look legit and they aren't...
