don't trust anyone with your internet connection.
first it starts off with school projects. then it goes to youtube. then it goes to DC++, then torrents.
and if she accidentally downloads "Mandy Moore Entire Collection.torrent" and it's a trap from the RIAA, the person who is paying for the connection gets the fine ($1 zillion dollars) |

yea see i didn't know if i was being paranoid or presumptuous, but that's why i told her i wanted to talk to some people first. i wasn't sure if i could be held liable for she downloads.
she's really annoying but my mom is nice to her. i hope my mom isn't like, "oh just let her" because i kind of don't want to.
but then again, i'm paying for it all including my computer, so it's really my decision. |

Im with suspicious here Jamie. In the UK, I'd say yes because they are relatively leniant at the moment on downloaded material.
That's not really the case in the US, where they could bust down your door at any given minute. |

rofl. we did warn you about this the first time you posted you needed help getting your internet connection hooked up with your wireless router. well it looks like you have your router talking, so congratulations on that. :)
but here's the big question. how do you know she wasn't leeching off your network, and then felt guilty so she came up with some lame excuse of a story like that? she could look like a dumb blonde, but she could be this ultra 1337 computer techie n3rd that knows how to hack through routers and do some insane crazy stuff.
but like vandit says ...... anything she does on the net, you're held liable for it. so if she is a frequent visitor of chickdump.com, then records show your IP address is visiting it. now do you want to be responsible for that? :conf: |

actually our neighbors are using our internet connection through the wi- fi , my dad gave them so IP addy so they can use internet through their own computer
and we let them using it for free
i got one of my friend who's living in a building and one of the neighbors is letting him through the wi-fi using the internet connection
i think as long as u set up a password and stuffs it's totally safe , that's not a big deal for u or? |

Plus 1.
Also its just an internet connection. Its not expensive. So the chick should be able to get internet on her own. |

| ROFL jamie...personally i wouldnt do it with the current climate of the RIAA and the potential that anyone with an internet connection is liable for EVERYTHING that flows in and out. thats not set in stone but there is a very good potential for it in the coming months. although i do know a way you could easily make it so that you can still get her on it and she cant do other than browse the net and use IM applications. :) |

With the amount of stuff that I 'aquire'... I dont think its that big of a deal. Than again I might be on the RIAA list and dont even know it. :p |
