No it won't because DigiProtect are nothing more than scam artists.

This is what they do.

Approach content provider say they will work No Win no Fee. Clearly this should set of warning bells already. They then take your content and upload it to p2p places. They then log the IPs of anyone downloading WHAT THEY PUT THERE and write a letter to the IP owners address asking for 500 quid.
