If you get a virus or worm via Kazaa maybe but the key damage would be to you personally (legally) if the RIA cracked down on you (Recording institute of America).
There have been people slammed already so it is a game of russian roulette to see if you will be signaled out.
Just like if you drive extreme speeds in your car. It can be exhilarating but if caught you have a major violation on your record (does not drop off in 3 years like a 70mph speed violation would).
Can Kazaa REALLY damage my laptop?
