Yes, you can get caught. Yes, you can prevent it. Take a look for proxies or AnonX (but you'll have to pay for AnonX)

Yes. If you look around the forum you'll actually see that someone was sent an email from their ISP about sharing on Bitt today

Hi,

If you want to be safe and not get caught, follow the steps below...............

1. Exit all programs
2. Turn off your PC or MAC
3. Unplug all wires
4. pack your PC/MAC in a padded box
5. Ship it to Me&#33;

That is the only way you will be safe.

If you dont want to run with a proxy you can run a program like ProtoWall (http://www.bluetack.co.uk/pw.html). I use it and have never had any problems...

bottom line, if u are a residential user and have constant high traffic on your bb connection, ya ISP are gonna know what ya up to,

best way round things is dont choose BT/FREESERVE/AOL as your providers
i&#39;ve been with eclispe in the uk for ages - i havent heard a thing from em

i use a program called &#39;complete anonymous web surfing&#39; and that allows you to connect to a proxy as and when you want to. it even chooses the best ones for you, its call. i got mine from overnet&#33;&#33;
