I know VM IPs can change like BT's without a reboot, happened to a friend of mine who got moved to a different port but his modem didn't restart or say anything in the modem logs.

How do you think they can give the details of a customer to the court if the court request it should that customer have been identified as having been file sharing ?

VM do, they have to keep them for a certain amount of time by Law and for some odd reason that amount of time is very restricted information .. I had to agree to some weird things before I was told .. one of which is to never kick a cat ..
