Prevent sharing of Drop Box
Authored by: JohnnyMnemonic on Nov 07, '03 11:35:51AM
That someone was doing that to you is kinda funny, really. Do you think that they had an inkling that you were a Mac user, or did they just see an exposed share?

I suppose you could have been more dastardly if you were motivated: trojan some of those files, so that the next time they were run you get a backdoor. etc.

Now that I think about it--why were they doing this? Once they placed those files in your box, unless you changed the permissions from "write only", they shouldn't have been able to get to them again. How would it have been useful for them?
