Hehehe, it's funny how paranoid people get. Even though my last roommate is about as knowledgeable as I am about computers, he raised hell because I forwarded a port to MY local IP address through our router for bittorrent, saying I was putting "us" at risk. While it is true that I am putting myself at risk to a small degree, I've never had my computer affected in a negative way because of a single forwarded port, let alone another computer on the local network that doesn't have any ports forwarded to it.
Actually, if you got infected with something, then there's a decent chance it might look for other local LAN IPs to propagate itself to, in which case your roommate's computer would be a pretty easy target.

How ya doing, buddy?
