Doh!  What 'inherent' security risks?  BT is written in python, it should 
truly be immune to buffer overflows.  You don't even have to port forward at 
your firewall, although you get better performance if you do.  If you mean 
spyware... its OSS, none of that crud.

If you want to learn about it, just google it (as all one word), the first 
result is the main site which has all the information you need.  Keep looking 
down the google results for other sites to try it out with.

Okay... reading your questions a second time... answer matches.. send!
