heh thats probably all bollox. i heard there were a few people going around pretending to be the RIAA and trying to scare people on kazaa. but if that is real, its unlikely they'll do anything to u since u are in the UK, and the RIAA can only go after Americans.
it may be fake, but it certainly looks a lot more real than the one rb2k1 got.. what email address was it from?
you cant be done by the RIAA in the UK, but the RIAA will be very friendly with the opposite number in the UK, and could probably arrange things if they really wanted you.
and dont just format, fdisk it first

the organisation 'fact' is "The UK's leading organisation for the support & exhibition of film, video and new media projects"..
i.e. fuck all to do with music.
plus in the email it said 'ria', not 'riaa'. they wouldnt make a shit mistake like that, and they would probably use an riaa email address.
+ if u havent used kazaa in months then i wouldnt be too bothered.. they only started doing this a few months ago

Re: bastards

Our attention has been brought to your recent posting of MP3 files. To the online file sharing facility "KaZaaLight".
i think that sentence proves its fake - if it was legit then there would be no grammer errors, notice how the dumb bastard who wrote the email put a full stop after 'files', that shouldn't be there should it!

Spot on what i thought with the 'ria' bit jeff
plyus fact is in lower case.
And another thing, you would have heard a lot more about these organisations going against the developers of kazaalite aswell, which would have been enuogh of a forwarning
i reckon you should email back and ask them to provide u with the details they are getting from ur isp, and also ask ur isp if they have provided details. u have a legal right to know due to data protection laws.
OH YUSS
