firewalls won't help
FastTrack has in it a technique to auto-download-install files on its own behalf.
These could be .EXE, .COM, .DLL's or just a good old MP3.
This ability is/was called the auto-update feature. It was turned off at version 1.3 because of complaint's from the user comunity in Morpheus, Grokster. I can't remember if Kazaa did also.
If you run FastTrack in any form you are not safe because the communication is done via the permitted channel on port 1214.
A firewall will not save you from this plague.
