are RIAA actually a law enforcement agency of some sort? Last i checked they couldnt come into your house if you refused them entry (goes for anybody without a search warrant) so you should be pretty safe, unless ofcourse they have proof of some kind (kazza, irc, edonkey logs etc) and are accompanied by some law enforcement agency with a signed search warrant

still downloading the file !

after just leaving an ISP industry after 6 years, i can tell you that your ISP keeps logs of who logs on at what time and what IP they got assigned when they connected and the phone number that dialed it

so yeah, you are lucky!

Was about to say the same..

The only way of really "hiding" your identity, is by using "proxies", which makes your computer connect through another computer/server.
That's what hackers/crackers do to avoid getting caught, but they can be traced if they're not clever enough.

i played a game for awhile and one of the tools i used to...uhh...cheat...was a program called proxyhunter...they can really trace that shit quick if your not careful, luckily it was just for a game and not file downloading or something
