Hello! I am new around here, and need some advice on two things:

1. Privacy: I have searched and found a considerable amount of discussion on hiding one's IP ... anonymizers, VPN, etc. ... but it has left me confused. I have Limewire 5.5.8 and Java1.6.0._20 on a machine running XP inside a wireless LAN. I feel totally exposed and do not like that feeling. What
should I do to torrent anonymously?

2. Location of files: I don't like files piling up in the Limewire folder because it is in My Documents. I would rather have all my torrented and other media in other folders outside My Documents on C or some other drive, and still keep them accessible to others on the Gnutella network. How can I do this?

Many thanks in advance!
