    Ive been downloading about 20gb of legal files i needed for work 2 days ago... so today there were 2 trucks on my block that were from the cable company... everything turned off for 5 min.. my cable, phone, internet.. then turned back on.. now everytime i get a call, or i call someone, there is like a second click about a second after i turn the phone on.. usually theres no click.. and outside my house, where the cable wires leave the house to go to the box on a wooden pole.. theres a new cable.. you think its possible they might have phone bugged me, and are watching what im download and such?

    yeah your phone could be bugged. They dont need a wire to see what your downloading they can already check without one. But does it matter? you said you downloaded legal stuff so they cant get you for anything

    Wireless wont help you, they can pull the logs of the ips connecting to the router, and that IP will link to your PC.

    I can see smoking can really help you type out your words right. Btw I wouldnt go around go tell people to get music off warez sites on a public forum.

    aren't you a smart cookie, warez is even worse and the feds have bugged certain p2p sites not the whole thing plus its illegal u rtard. on the other hand you do know this forum is public right? Also I've been doing the same thing as you Coolguy in which i think I've downloaded more than 20gb of legal files and have only gotten in trouble once by the cable company in which they just gave me a warning to cut down on th DLs or they would cut off my internet service for 1 year. Which i think is bull----. I think theres nothing to worry about unless your absolutely certain that somethings going on. Or the cable company is just making some adjustments around your area and not just your house.

    Second click could of been a tape recorder, recording your messages, if it's anything fed related.

    Well, cheers.
