when using p2p networks always use a program called peerguardian ( google it ) as it stops these companies from connecting to you
i dont use that crap myself but no matter what your reasons are or what excuses you use if you are using p2p then you are doing illigal activity lol
you may be able to kid the isp but you aint fooling me lol
you did however get lucky as quite a lot of people including children ( parents get the bill ) are recieving fines and going to court from been caught on programs like kazza , direct connect , torrents and other p2p networks
this may be of interest to you

filesharing may soon be dead
sorry to go aff topic but it has been ruled that people who make file sharing programs are legaly responsible for what their users do with the software
if that is the case should a gun company be responsible for what people do with guns and if i was ever stabbed with a stanley knife could i sue the comany who made the knife
