As far as I'm aware, it's not illegal to download things. Only illegal to upload.
And besides, even if you were uploading, you would receive a cease and desist letter, so it's not like the FBI would come out of nowhere.

If you're that worried, you might just want to stop doing it.
Or, since that is very unlikely, find a program to mask your presence (If such a thing exists; I do not download very often anymore).
