It isn't easy to be completely anonymous online, not to mention very expensive. It is however somewhat possible to use servers set up as VPN (virtual private network) as well as encrypting all your traffic between home and said servers. Just know that everything is just anonymous within limits i.e. no matter what precautions you take, if what you are doing ****** off powerful enough people, then you better be some extremely paranoid everything hidden hacker type person.

As for Limewire it doesn't in any way or form fall under anonymous filesharing, so if you live in Corporate controlled countries like e.g. the USA, then you would be wise to at least use some precautions if planning to use Limewire for e.g. downloading new popular music.
