    I guess it was on people who shared entire drives, or, can you trick nicotine to go folders above the shared ones? Like ../.

    When I discovered SoulSeek I did something alike, I saw that I were able to explore other shares of the same user, and then you got me there doing some clicks to see how far I could went.

      Yeah, some people share their entire drives, so the people who share system files are likely to have their private files there as well.

        I once had a corrupt .dll system file, after trying for hours to find a copy to download it took ten seconds to find and download one on emule thanks to people sharing the entire system.
