Okay, so what would the warning say?

Strangers only mode enabled: Please get some Friends

Freenet is currently only connecting to nodes run by people you do not know. 
Please use the Friends page to get some connections to people you know by 
exchanging your noderefs (at the bottom of the page). Once you have at least 
10 connections to Friends, you can disable Strangers mode and your node will 
become invisible and much harder to attack or block.


One worry here is that users won't read the full message, they'll just see the 
short form (as we only display the short form on the homepage) and then go to 
Frost or IRC or something??

We could display some form of this on the last page of the wizard, as well as 
in a useralert. The user is probably more inclined to read it there???
