|
|
I am sure this has been asked many times before, so sorry in advance.
I have a new computor. It is working great, But now I want to download some Christmas music and Christmas movies. I really am scared of getting a virus on here. Yes, I have anti software
I have used kazaa in the past, but have caught viruses from that. Where can I download movies and music for free that will not cause me problems?
Thank you guys so much, you are always so helpfull. |

| bit torrent seems to be somewhat safer than P2P for viruses, though you usually can't download individual songs. Download Azureus, and then go to the torrentspy website to look for Christmas files. |

| Install Avast antivirus. I believe it scans the file as you download because it comes with built in P2P protection. I currently use AVG antivirus, which is probably not as good. Whenever a trojan or a virus would find its way in my computer, Avast would warn me automatically. AVG doesn't seem to do that. |
