No such thing as a free lunch. Bit Torrent is flirting with the miscreants anyway. But the warning is out there, Apple is not immune, and given the general attitude amongst Mac users that they don't get viruses, the potential for infection is very high.

Its a jungle out there. And using Intel processors made the job easier!

And there is always a "Norton Defender". Which if it isn't an anti-virus - what is?
