No more than other software
Also, even if one uses an alternative P2P program they're leaving their system wide-open and vulnerable to sending and receiving a wide variety of viruses, trojans and other such scum.

Software such as Outlook Express exposes you to this exact same problem. As does internet browsers, news readers, chat programs, instant messaging, news readers, and media players.

So really basically using the internet in any form exposes. So is your point that we should not use the internet?
