I'd be pretty wary of feeling secure with anything that says it "blocks the RIAA addresses" as what's to stop the RIAA from just buying a dial-up modem connection from some ISP, connecting to Kazaa, and watching and writing down names, addresses, times, and files?

If you are going to share files (which I pass no judgement on), then you may want to use DirectConnect, as that greatly limits the number of people who you're "exposed" to at once. Sure, it also limits what's available, but it may be "safer" in terms of the RIAA tracking you down and trying to sue you.

Despite that, if you're going to do filesharing on public networks, it's a very distinct possibility that you will be found out before too long.
