Since Rapid Leech is a Windows program, tne logs it sends could include the person's name as set in Windows, their IP, whether or not they are using wireless, etc?

Rapid Leech is a server side program and almost all server boxes (well most used by the pirates) would probably have some flavor of linux. It'll run on a windows server though.
Having it on someones own machine at home would defeat the purpose. The whole point is to have everything stored on a remote server that can upload much faster than almost all home connections and do so without tying up any lines.
Most people know to only download from the official repository, which is on code.google. (or something like that). That's why it's never wise to download programs from rogue locations if it can be helped.
Some people have been aware from this but mostly it seems idle. The sad part is some 3rd worlders look at this for something to use and there are a few of you who will actually use this to just supplement your income.
I'll be working behind the scenes now.
