Torrenting, and that kinda activity shouldn't be a bother, providing you're using the proper NAT transveral port forwarding and not some stupid ass DMZ setup.

That being said, it really exploits the RPC service as per the wiki article, and I dunno about you guys, but i've had that turned off since NIMDA
