Of course, if you download suspect applications from torrent sites, be sure to face viruses :p

if check it , then any problem to my pc in future?? about virus , or anything ???
if you uncheck it, you cannot download torrents, because windows firewall blocks it..


about viruses, installing u torrent by itself wont give you any viruses
and most probably neither will most of the torrents
but if you download shady torrents, you may have some problems..

also be sure to instal all the toolbars etc that come with it, they help a lot ;)

^^don't fear and get confused by utorrent....

just allow them in firewall both UDP & TCP (as they are needed for packet transfer)
