I got a rather disturbing email from Comcast (my internet provider). If any of y'all who are computer/internet/file-sharing savvy would care to take a look at this and tell me what the hell it means, I would appreciate it.

The main thing I don't understand...this "IWANNACOWNLOAD.com", is that the site supposedly that I'm downloading from? Or contributing to? Because until I got this email, I'd never heard of the site. Also, the "report date/time" is listed as 4 Oct 2010, 19:22, but the "Initial Infringement Timestamp" is four hours *later*. I'm very confused. So, thoughts, comments, anything?

Sweetie,

You need to get a wireless router that you can firewall so no one can leech off your connection. They're pretty cheap now, especially at someplace like Best Buy, Office Depot or Staples. I always get the Linksys Wireless Router, it does a really good job and is lockable.

I'd be happy to help you in any way you needed to get it set up. :)

*hugs*

I have a Netgear router, and I know I can password-protect it. It's just a matter of doing it, now. Guess I'll start with their website :)

Thanks :) I'll be sure to holler if I have questions/need help :)
