It depends on whether or not the rights holder is monitoring specific files on Limewire for download activity. Usually when they do monitor, they capture the IP addresses of those downloading and use the information to subpoena their identity from ISPs. No "hacker" knowledge is needed to capture the addresses. On Windows, for instance, you can type "netstat" on the command prompt to see what IPs are connected to your PC whilst downloading files.

you may get arrested, but the likelihood of that happening is so little. The worst thing that might happen is that you get fined, or you will just get a letter in the mail telling you to stop
