    errrrrrrrrr ive never heard of sumthing like that happening
    but if you're scared just make sure you give it lots of free space so the air flow can cool it
    i d/l like huge files like 8 at a time on bitcomet and i leave it for days and its fine

    I download like 10 several GB things at a time on BT, and it never does anything bad. So no.

    It would only cause damage if you have a poor PSU.

    Its the power connector in your pc. Where you plug your power plug into on the back of your pc.

    It won't fry your computer, but depending on your ISP you could get in trouble for up/down badwidth use, and could overpopulate one's hard drive, but unless something went wrong hard-ware wise you shouldn't have a problem with things catching fire..

    Just make sure you have enough space on your hard drive, and you can download for days. ;)

    Genenrally your ISP won't say anything about the amount you use your bandwidth... if they do... ask them what you're paying them for. :lol:

    You should be fine, don't worry. :D

    yep, just make sure your hard drive isn't screaming like a Yetti, and youre fine.... I left my computer on overnight a few days ago and it was fine.

    If my computer ever catches fire, my fans would blow it out... :lol:
