      Ok, so my query is if I use the uTorrent extension on Opera and enable Opera's VPN, will my internet provider be able to trace/track the fact that I am downloading anything?? I know that if you do not use VPN an entity can trace your downloading activity back to my server, and then back to my connection.

      Now I use a separate VPN program and use uTorrent which DOES mask any activity that I am doing on my laptop.

      Thanks

        The extension would be just kinda of a remote control to the real program, that would be the one doing the download, am I right?
        If so, the VPN in Opera wouldn't help.

          I understand what you are suggesting. I guess I am thinking about an extension that replaces the normal uTorrent program, and being that it would be doing the downloading directly within Opera. For instance, old Opera 12 could enable torrent files and then do the download natively. I was think an extension then might be doing the ACTUAL downloading within Opera without using the uTorrent program.
