    It's likely just a warning.

    Plausible deniability is your friend. An IP address is not positive identification. Many people keep their wireless insecure precisely because of this. You could say it "wasn't me, it's someone who used my connection".

    The movie folks are not as big a pricks as the music guys are. Send them a reply telling them you have looked into the matter and discovered that someone in your neighborhood was connected to your WIFI without your knowledge and the material must be on their system. Let them know you since password protected your wireless connection now and the problem should be solved. Tell you are sorry for the misunderstanding and ask if there is anything else you can do to be of assistance in this matter. That should get them off of your back and give you some degree of plausible deniability.

    Oh shit! It starts here. Then comes the ISP monitoring, the court order for seizure of computer and all external storage then finally the end to your internet freedom.
