Where did he get the torrent from? If from a web page they would be able to get the info from their logs.

We are with Charter.net, broadband, and he uses Windows XP. He d/l's lots of newer movies and he got a letter from them this week, naming a specific movie he had downloaded (TombRaider 2), and essentially telling him to "cease and desist" or face the loss of his account and possibly further legal action. He uses BitTorrent for p2p. So how did they catch him? Packet sniffing the stream or what? This is from the same company that is willing to spend millions to fight the RIAA, to keep from turning over their user lists because they believe its unconstitutional. Perhaps this is part of their planned defense in court: "look your honor, here are examples of how we are policing ourselves - no need for outside interference". Possibility?
