Re: How NOT to get caught!
Firewall? Even with peerguardian you can get caught, Safest way is to just not download at all. Haha today was a great day for me. "Sarcastically" One of my classes that I was looking forward to got cancelled for the semester and I get a warning letter.
Re: How NOT to get caught!
peerguardian is completely useless. i dont know why ppl think this program is so good. the best way not to get caught is not downloading at all like ooxxoo said. but there are so many ppl sharing files nowadays that all you get is a warning (they cant catch and sue everyone).

whats the highest amount of warnings anyone has received?
Re: How NOT to get caught!
I'd like to know that too.
Re: How NOT to get caught!
I have read many posts like this and i think that the max someone recieved was like 4-5 but he just threw them away!!!!
Re: How NOT to get caught!
As others have said, the only sure fire way not to get caught is not to do it in the first place.
People seem to think that PG2 gives them protection from being caught, but from what I have read, it only blocks the connection to you, your IP address is still recorded. Some people have said that this could be a factor in anyone trying to bring a law suit against you as they would be able to prove an IP address, but no content uploaded from your connection. I'm not sure about this but for the time being there is no harm in using IP filtering tools.
The various programs that provide a level if anonimity such as I2P or tor look like being the best bet in the future, though I think they're toonew and small at the moment for decent file sharing
Re: How NOT to get caught!
Ive gotten over 12 ceast and decist letters acctually.
Just can your isp and get a new one.
Long as they company that caught you dl their files doesnt ask for your personal info you should be fine. Since a new isp wouldnt have any records of your past doings.

i dont think that is even an option :D
If anyone comes across a guaranteed way not to get caught. either using a program or some tweaking to the computer. LET US KNOW!! :w00t:
