specific ptp networks' clien security contradiction

[unhappyStar]

from the previous threads it is obious that many ao members object to using ptp network clients based on their inheret security vulnerablities. my question or maybe a begginning of discussion concerns a pure java clien; LimeWire! Since a Java program runs in so called "virtual sandbox' it should be restricted from accessing system-wide resources. then it should be a trivial matter to properly code a restricted folder/disc access.

basically, if my reasoning is correct, LimeWire should be the the most secure client.

do you agree ???

i'm not so sure if i would use limwire it contains spyware...

Hi,

I follow the suspicion of Meister, i've used LimeWire too a while ago and I suspect it too from spyware.

Like i said before, p2p is great principle but by time it totaly got f**ked up , just by the adware , spyware and some serious security based reasons.

I stopped with p2p-connections, and even ever since I 've no problem to find anything
on the internet.
