I not sure that they would, but there is always the possibility that they could show that not only was the music a copy of the one you had downloaded, but it had come from your IP address, then I think they would have a pretty good case for that
One or the other may not be enough, but both together might very well be.

And you think if you were prosecuted for Copyright theft that they wouldn't have computer experts that could work out if your computer had been hacked or not?
