Programmer Sets Up Mask for File-Sharers
"Wyatt Wasicek was so outraged by the recording industry's legal assault on users of free music-downloading sites that he decided to ride to the rescue. He created a program called AnonX that masks the Internet address of people who use file-sharing programs such as Kazaa.
Available for $5.95 per month, AnonX sets up a virtual private network, or VPN, between a user's computer and the company's computers. The AnonX computers act as proxies, and actually do the Web surfing for the subscriber." By BRIAN BERGSTEIN, AP Technology Writer Article here Source: AP News |

Would this actually work though. surely there is still a trace of the connection from the ISP. And the ISP would have records of which user was assigned to that particular connection.
