ABSOLUTELY! You need to be careful when downloading random torrents. Before opening or executing anything from a torrent-linked file, scan it through antivirus software. Avast is a good free one, but you'll have to do some poking around on the site to find the free, personal version. Google Avast Free and you'll find it. Likewise, torrents aren't the only thing that cary viruses. JUST BE CAREFUL WITH DOWNLOADING ANYTHING ON THE INTERNET!!!
Good Luck.
