no man you didn't answer my question
i am asking simon to clarify his post regarding the IP Trap, which I interpret as files acting like trojans reporting your IP to the RIAA??!!
Right, simon??
heres how i believe it works ... you connect to a user to download a file, your computer gives your i. p address to the computer with the file you want so it knows where to send the file to. riaa and movie company's set up accounts and when you connect to an account used by them they have your i. p address, then they contact your internet service provider and get you details from them, usually you will get a warning, but they do take people to court in the usa, the fines can be very large..
