i don't want bittorrent going through my whole disk drive, and letting anyone download any of my files.

LOL. Sorry, had to laugh. Bittorrent doesn't upload the contents of your hard drive. It only uploads parts of the files you are downloading to other users.

I didn't know that either. I've always wondered why there was uploading.

Well, it IS a p2p program in the sense that MOST of your downloading of the WoW client will come from other players. Blizzard only handles a small percentage of the file download and the rest is down player-to-player, so unless you plan on using it immediately (unlikely if it finishes while you are asleep,) leave the client running as long as you can.
