If you use popcorn time to stream a torrent that is infected will the malware spread through the entire system or is it restricted within popcorn time.

That wasn't what I meant. PopCorn TIme downloads the film while streaming so others can download off you. That is how torrents work. i just want to know weather or not the file that popcorn time creates when you are streaming the film can infect your machine if the torrent is infected. Does popcorn time restrict the file in some way or something.
