RE: [OT] Heroes online anywhere?



I'm sure I'm teaching my Grandma to suck eggs but...

If you do use Ted and some form of Torrent client (uTorrent is my
recommendation) for downloading TV shows etc then I recommend also running
PeerGaurdian2 http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2/ to block
any official organisation recording your IP address.

If your really really paranoid then use a proxy server as well :)
