You don't think it might be some clever spam?

It'd have to be very clever to pick up the file name and the ISP the downloader is using, generate an originating email address and mail and send it to the correct and valid mail addy of the user.

Especially within such a timeframe.

i've seen letters like that before and it looks legit. Peerguardian can help....i remember some torrent files being entirely fake and designed to trap users who were downloading something (think it was an ep of prison break once)...but PG blocked all the connections so nothing would be downloaded and they wouldnt catch you connecting to them to get it

Good little app, worth using

Newsgroups guys, go do some reading paying a little each month is worth everything ten times over. Fastest speeds on the net, actually max out your internet, and no comeback (as of yet) from and companies, for a start YOU don't actually share, the 0-day release hacker type group people upload it cleverly for you. Check sylcks guide to newsgroups, google

Couldn't agree more less than £10 a month will get you all the latest movies coming down at the max speed for your connection, thats 10Mb for me

Movies arrive quicker than it takes to watch them and you get all the parity files so any missing data is repaired

I'm interested in NewsGroups but wouldn't know where to start?

I don't trust the results I get back from Google on what's what.
