I think its fine. It's common for web sites to be able to detect your IP address.
If you're paranoid that something else might have happened from that website, I would recommend disconnecting from the internet, clearing all your browser cache and cookies, (maybe even run antivirus, antispyware, and/or anti-adware) and then reconnect to the internet.

ooo trying to download illegal stuff.. tut tut
don't worry... it's not real.. if you log onto the same website on a different computer i'm willing to bet that they show the same ip address for that computer when they say it's logged.

Naw. It's easy to see the address of someone at your site. Some morons send you that message to try and sell you evidence eliminating software, or just to be morons.

If the message is poped up from a browser, just close it. If the pop-up does not occure again, you're safe. otherwise you may wanna check your system with an anti-virus and spyware sweaper...

You're fine. It just means that your IP address is in the history on their server. Unless it's illegal, you're fine.

yes, you might want to completly rebout your computer, not just shut down/turn on, but rebout the whole system, if you don't have anything important.
but Your system might not be affected, so you should wait first.

Nothing to worry about, but you can always use system restore,

Use the AT&T anti-spy to scan for tracking cookies and remove them. If you have a better anti-spy, use it.
