    Has anyone ever used this?

    http://www.btguard.com/

    Any thoughts? Can you really be anonymous with it? Would they themselves pry into your activity?

    I'm not interested in doing anything illegal. I just like the thought of true anonymity. I've been having trouble with download managers, and there are a few BIG files I want.

    why not look into onion routing/tor ;) never used BT proxy myself so can't say anything about it. If you're worried about people spying on what you're downloading / doing, have a look at peer guardian. Are you looking into a proxy to bypass throttling? Also BT proxy is a paid for service, where as if you're looking for anonymity tor will do the job for ya (free). Don't know if you can bypass throttling with it, never tried :P

    How would you use tor with uTorrent?
