Me to be nice i think it's mostly a bowl of crap.But i think the reason she got busted is because she left her Lime Wire on all day what do you think.

Lol if ya using a p2p it dont matter if ya left it on all day or all week, they know what data ports are open (your ISP that is) so why not jsut changed the default ports to something different makes it a bit hard for your ISP.

How on earth do they find out where you live to be able to sue you?? I live in England and Im pretty certain there is no way of anyone being able to trace me? I havent downloaded anything like this many tracks but if there is a way of being traced then to hell with it I QUIT!!

If you click on the monitor tab in Limewire you will see all of the peers that you are uploading your files to...
This is where the authorities can catch you, they see your IP address and then link it to your ISP, your ISP then gets a notice from them and passes it onto you about sharing copyrighted files...And boom your busted...

And they can link that to your home address?? Sorry I am a little ignorant about these things. I had no idea!

They can link that to your ISP which in turn links it to you...
Do you have Peerguardian2, if not it's wise to have it...

I got it now! Many thanks

I think it's outrageous that this one individual would get sued just because she happens to be using LW to get the songs she wants. Heck, I've been using LW Basic, but you don't see me getting sued YET (that being the keyword). Then again, I'm in WV. I have yet to see such a case right here in WV, but I don't doubt one bit that there are certain individuals from recording studios (as well as stores that sell such recordings) who get very peeved at the thought of someone obtaining music in a manner deemed questionable.
