WARNING: Tons of cookies on Gnutella

[YoCheeseHead]

There are a lot of cookie files floating around on Gnutella

A search for "cookies.txt" yields hundreds of results.

Most likely, this is because Gnutella clients automatically scan the user's harddrive for *.txt files upon installation.

Get someone's amazon.com cookie and there could be some serious "one-click" damage. I'm sure you can think of other nightmares.

CHECK WHAT YOU ARE SHARING IF YOU USE GNUTELLA, IMESH, CUTEMX, ETC.

WTF ever happened to gnutella ?. . .i got it back in the day when it was really buggy and it seemed like a loosely sewn together GUI. . . .there's a new version?. . .i thought it got drowned in its own feces. . .

I like Gnutella except it is such a resource hog...
