The reason I ask is your IP will still be in the P2P trackers, so people will be trying to connect to you to get the torrents you have.

If you have a router with a log you can see this passing through the logs. You cant stop it, the only way is to reset and hope you get a new IP or wait for the tracker to expire you.

You never know you could be part of a "bot" network sending spam and ddos attacks.
As I have already stated "This happens with nothing connected to either the USB or Ethernet ports".
