stop it - are you serious that we should be affraid of viruses - first there is a thing called virus scan before you open up anything you download- then if you are worried about viruses still you can setup a test machine to just do p2p and test software -- if you still are afraid of viruses get a program like Acronis True Image 11 and make a clone of your hard drive download anything you want you screw something up on that install just restore your clone back to the oprginal (takes 5 minutes)

Seriously, helpfull dolphin, if you use either of those services, you are opening you PC to infection. If someone knows their way around file structures, they can easily attach a trojan to any file you download and take control of your PC for very malicious reasons. $1 a song is a much better value than someone watching you go into your bank account and then take control and wipe you life savings clean. Trust me, it happens.
