(Canned Speech) P2P Warning

[--([-S7N-])--]

P2P Programs

**IMPORTANT I notice there are signs of one or more P2P (Person to Person) File Sharing Programs on your computer.

• [insert PSP program]
  

I shall provide you with a few reference links, please read them up to know the risks of having a P2P program.

• P2P file sharing: Know the risks
  
• P2P File-Sharing: Evaluate the Risks
  
• ITSC: Risks in Peer-to-peer File Sharing
  

Note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P file-sharing as a major conduit to spread their wares.

My recommendation is you go to Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs and uninstall the programs listed above.

If you choose not to remove them, please do not use them until this computer is clean.
