    Nearly all peer2peer sharing will give you the potential for nastys! as you have no idea what you are downloading and where it came from.

    What you mean by wares? Warez is euphemism for illigal software and p2p will allow you access to this BUT again you do not know on p2p what you are downloading and what it could potentially have imbedded in the files!

    potential hazzards of limewire
