Dear DV

Sorry about your bad experience but I think you misunderstand what P2P is about, you said:

There is no "here" to put things on, i.e. no central server, no special place or anything else. There are just individuals, some strange, with their stuff on their own individual PCs.

And basically, what you did was download "sickness" from a sick individual. Check this URL, it will explain clearly how P2P networks work:

Once you understand the P2P network you will now understand why you have to take precautions to protect yourself (and I just don't mean viruses and worms).
