This program not only messed up my shared documents folder, it installed a trojan and added MANY files on the computer that were NEVER downloaded to ANYONES knowledge. It installed a hacker trojan also that let hackers hide windows.
Dani

not dangerous unless u make it one by downloading a virus or something. It makes a port vulnerable to hackers. A hardware firewall will prevent any sort of damage.
