Thanks for clearing that up.

As many people will agree 90% of theadult files on the network are not what they are coded to be, so your average 18 y/o movie will infact be either CP or some 50 y/o mother with more tatoo's than ink allows and more peircings than a voodoo doll!

I am well against CP and that, I was disgusted the other day when downloading a movie from another host I browsed their files, much to my amazment and disgust there must have been 200+ cp files there. No comes the prediciment on what to do?,
do I
a) report it - then get in trouble for downloading adult stuff from them (not CP by the way)
or just shrug it off as life has it.

I blocked the ip address striaght away so can't find out what it is again!

Are you sure you had the IP address? If things were that simple, in the US anyway, you would have cops doing the same thing. Unless I'm wrong a cop with a IP address one can go to Dell or whoever and find out who the machine is registered with for warranty purposes.

Making that knowledge public in most Western countries will scare off every CP distributor of note.

say what????

you're wrong....and IP address is similar to a house address...it is not an ID of the computer....

thanks for that Peer. I'd like to believe that but this site, for a few dollars, claims they can identify your very house with a IP number:

People-Search.com

Or, I think, give me my IP address by entering my home street address.

My point is that if the cops collect my IP address via my downloading or uploading something to/from my PC they can pinpoint the street address.

If I'm allowing someone to collect my IP address and I don't know how to disguise or hide it its effectively public information.

I assume my only option, assuming I'm one of the bad guys here is to dump my computer, get a new one for cash and never register the warranty or anything else for that matter.

And if I want my enemy to get arrested all I have to do is buy his old but registered computer, not change the address, download and share CP then watch the cops fruitlessly raid his home.

I actually hope I'm wrong on all this, that my privacy can't be invaded that easily but with the web site I referred to the scenario is realistic. Show me how I'm wrong. Please

pulease take the time to read my last post, where I quoted your words again...

you stated (and I again quote YOU) "Unless I'm wrong a cop with a IP address one can go to Dell or whoever and find out who the machine is registered with for warranty purposes."

YOU said the law can to to "Dell or whoever......."

I said an IP addy is like an address....

you seem to be having some problems with what's up and down today...been drinking?
