LW doesn't spread viruses, but there are heaps of infected files being shared on the network. Sometimes people share infected files out of ignorance & sometimes companies deliberately share bad files: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/downlo...h-results.html

You need to make sure that you're using a good AV (antivirus) program. Keep it updated & use it to scan any files that you download - before you open them

Check out the threads below for more info.
