I have received 2 warnings from my ISP (comcast), for copyright infringement for torrenting movies, yet I have been connected without interruption to this proxy.... what am I doing wrong?

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

Comcast may be tracing your IP up to 180 days ago

+1 to the last poster, but also your proxy could be keeping / forwarding logs.  Try an anonymous VPN service.

The torrent downloader may not be using the proxy correctly. I know at some point the downloader is requesting data/info and it reveals your IP when doing so.
