[lukee]

change isp ASAP!

[Degenx]

If you're downloading from public sites use a proxy, lol. If you don't want to change isps, then tell your isp to cancel your current account and start up again with a new addy.

You can't change the past, and if need be you're gonna have to live up to the consequences.

Torrents are very possible the easiest way to get caught trading files. I would try other means.

If your using BT are you using private trackers?

[eric884]

i'm using bit torrent no private tracker
The email specifically said it was because i was dling balls of fury. i really think it was just that torrent, i thought something was sketchy because it was an early release compared to like Axxo or fxg. i donno man, maybe i should just stop for a while.
any ideas?

Use private trackers or something like PeerGuardian2 if you have to use public ones...

I definitely wouldn't go downloading with your current ISP account. They've given you the chance to stop with their warning...

If I were you I would get another ISP account. Consider using a seedbox to DL...
