Alien54's Journal: Your Kids Could be Exposing Your Files on the Net

Your kids could be exposing all of your confidential computer files to the entire world. WFXT (Fox 25 TV in Boston) has a video report on kids unwisely changing the sharing options in many P2P software packages, often sharing the entire hard drive without their parent's knowledge. After that, they are just a simple search from trouble. As seen in the report, everyone from a California software engineer (making 114K, with 34K in alimony) to an ex-CIA director had problems.
