    They claim the network was &#39;Morpheus&#39;, but you were running Shareaza -- which uses Gnutella 2 as well as Gnutella 1.

    Your ISP probably didn&#39;t send you that email, but if you call them up and say you got a possible prank email claiming the FBI is after you -- they may be able to tell you if it&#39;s legit or not. Of course if it is, you may not want to hear what ELSE they&#39;ll say. Just take their advice with a grain of salt and don&#39;t share as much/anything that might get you in trouble with the same organization that supposedly bothered you in the first place for a couple months.

    Wow that guy must be really special to be able to delve into any jurisdiction on the whole planet.

    There&#39;s no &#39;I&#39; in &#39;team&#39;. But then there&#39;s no &#39;I&#39; in &#39;useless smug colleague&#39;, either.
    And there&#39;s four in &#39;platitude-quoting idiot&#39;. Go figure.
