Everything you do on the internet can be tracked. Every movies that you watch had to go through your internet provider before getting to your screen and they keep a log of everything.
The internet is not anonymous like people think it is.

Here's an interesting article talking about how music pirates get caught. The same methods apply.
Some notes:
How You Will Get Caught Downloading:
1. There are various technical monitoring services who are employed by the MPAA, the RIAA, and various copyright and government authorities. They are paid to watchdog millions of users on the Internet.
2. Through digital surveillance means, those third-party monitoring services or your ISP Internet Service Provider) will notice your large bandwidth use. You will then be regularly monitored and your downloads will be examined.
3. Once these authorities deem your downloading to be a breach of copyright law, and once they decide that you are worth prosecuting, your real identity will then be clarified. This is when your ISP divulges your home address and contact information, either willingly or under threat by the prosecuting entity.
4. You might be lucky enough to receive a warning email only. But if you are like some unlucky users, you will receive a threatening legal letter.

They can trace everything you do on line. But seriously, do you think they are going to go after one person that's downloading some free movies while there is "professional" pirating going on. Do you also worry about running yellow lights and reading magazines in line at the checkout? Relax.

The FBI has thousands of ITT technicians that randomly select different IP addresses that track computers that people use. If they see you looking at illegal stuff, they can bust you because that IP address is unique and can be tracked through the MAC address of the modem.

History on your PC or the proxy server. Bandwidth consumption isolated to your PC. Knowing who you are on Y!A and seeing this question.
And, yes, we do know who you are. Go down the hall and to the right. Boxes are ready for you.
