If you use Peerblock while downloading there's not much chance of getting caught. You will probably get caught if you don't though.

If they have high seeds they shouldn't have viruses.

Go for ones with high seeds & check a few of the comments out before you download Smile

Use peerblock too ( if you don't want to get caught )

It should say the number of seeds. On popular torrent sites you can usually filter by number of seeds.
