I have found free and legal downloadable file share software, but is there any free, legal, downloadable file share software that will not mess up your computer in anyway (spyware, adware, virus, trojan, etc.) and not steal your files?

Need a torrent client- as with anything you download, scan it before installing it, but I have never had a problem with that site.
I Download it to try it out first. If I like it, I buy it. I dont believe I should spend 400 dollars on a grahpics program, if it doesnt do, or have the capacity for what I need.
Adobe rocks...they actually have 30 day trials for all their products.
Its not about ripping people off, its about them not ripping ME off by selling me junk software, and me not being able to get my money back !

Yes, bittorrent is what I use- sorry to not get back sooner.
The speed will totally depend on how many people are seeding it.
Best thing to do, let it run overnight while you sleep!

Yes, torrents are free downloadable software PLATFORMS, which allows you to download almost any software from another torrent user's (seeder) computer whenever they and their torrent software are online. There is no risk to do so. Only thing you have to keep in mind is to scan the files properly just after the downloading. Torrents never share/steal anything from your computer to others but share only whatever things you downloaded through torrents, WITH your knowledge. You can say NO to share with others if you wish.
µTorrent (myu-torrent) is one of the popular torrent softwares. You may read the fAQ from the site http://www.utorrent.com

Guess why paid legal downloadable software are distributing software for free? Because you're already paying subscription through which they pay to the software owners.
Therefore, it's not possible to find a free legal downloadable software without trojans/viruses or whatever.

If you use a fileshare software you're ALWALYS on the risk of spyware, trojan, malware and so on. Use a good antivirus in your PC, such as "Kaspersky"...and a goog filesharing!
