What I find amusing is that if I reboot my modem/router my IP changes, so how the hell do they figure on proving I had that particular IP back in August '05?

This should be interesting.
your isp keeps records of who had what IP and at what exact time

they have to, by law

I'm surprised it took that many posts for someone to say outright it was a scam. I thought that was implicit in the first post.

She tells me that I am the one being sued!

Naturally, I ask for what, and she informs me that on August 17, 2005 some 537 songs were downloaded to my pc via Kazaa.

That is a pretty sweet trick considering I have never even visited their site.
You have kids - Perhaps they did. I know a woman in Phoenix about three years ago got slammed with a $17k lawsuit (or something close) because her son downloaded music.

The first person I called after hanging up was my son, and he never heard of Kazaa, even asked me how to spell it so he could look at it. He uses a paid service (limewire I think it is called).

I called my ISP today, they have no notations on my account about any of this.

Conclusion: it is a scam.

Not according to my ISP. They agreed, that would be some pretty extensive record keeping
