It doesn't matter what you use to download, it is what you're downloading.
Âµtorrent is safe as a program.

uTorrent, it's not what you are downloading with but what you are downloading. uTorrent is super-lightweight and easy to use.

There is no such thing as a private or secure torrent. Most secure: Don't use it. Remember that anybody from the MPAA/RIAA can start downloading the torrent, find your IP in the swarm and hit up your ISP about it. There's no real way to prevent this but rent a dedicated torrent box somewhere out there in the internets.

EDIT: And unity can you do something about your Sig? There is a limit, and the empty spaces are annoying. Thanks

if you arent doing anything illegal, you shouldnt have any thing to worry about.

stop downloading music/movies if you dont want to get busted.

Or learn how to do it right

.

Actually... I have gotten busted before... It was for Conan the movie with Arnold Schwarzenager (or however the $%#^ you spell it). All I had to do was tell them I deleted it from my HDD when all I did was stop uploading the torrent.

You really have to be very careful when downloading torrents. Some of the latest malwares are spread on there.
