I have received 2 warnings from my ISP (comcast), for copyright infringement for torrenting movies, yet I have been connected without interruption to this proxy.... what am I doing wrong?

The torrent downloader may not be using the proxy correctly. I know at some point the downloader is requesting data/info and it reveals your IP when doing so.

+1 to the last poster, but also your proxy could be keeping / forwarding logs.  Try an anonymous VPN service.

Comcast may be tracing your IP up to 180 days ago
