How to Control p2p uploads risk using Zapshares

 

Sharing Files Puts You At Risk If you use P2P file sharing software such as LimeWire, uTorrent, Azureus Vuze, FrostWire, BitTorrent, Shareaza, Ares, eMule, or other similar file sharing software to share music, movies, or software, then you may be unintentionally sharing files that can put you at risk of lawsuits and identity theft.

       P2P file sharing software automatically shares files on your computer, and files you download, with all other P2P users. Some of the files being shared however can contain  sensitive information.

      ZapShares is FREE award winning software used by millions of users worldwide that works in conjunction with any P2P file sharing software you currently use, and allows you to continue downloading any files you want while protecting you against expensive lawsuits and identity theft.
       ZapShares scans and monitors your computer, identifying potential security threats caused by file sharing software, and ensures that you or someone in your household doesn't accidentally share files that could expose you to expensive lawsuits by copyright holders, or expose you and your private information to identity theft.

       It does that by blocking file uploads in the supported P2P programs but only after the files have been downloaded.This works well in P2P clients where the user does not upload the bits received while downloading the rest. Zapshares will spring into action once the download of a file has been completed. It will automatically move the file into another location so that it is not offered and shared by the user.
         Zapshares is definitely not the holy grail that protects users from sharing files in P2P networks. We already mentioned that users are uploaders in many P2P networks for as long as they download the files. It should also be noted that Zapshares did not detect the uTorrent installation on our test system.It is also bothersome that there is no option to close Zapshares once it runs in the system tray. 
     
     Downloading ZapShares is a quick and simple process that can save you countless hours of frustration and millions of dollars by helping to protect you against lawsuits and identity theft. To download ZapShares, CLICK HERE. 

     System Requirements : To use ZapShares, your computer must be running Microsoft Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, or Windows 2000.
