Hi all,
I'd like to know if there's any security risk using a p2p client like rtorrent ?
Well... you're downloading unknown content from strangers.
Since you'll also be uploading content, someone *might* be able to hack into your system using a vulnerability in rtorrent or a bug in the network stack.
But I would only be minimally worried.
