I guess you *have* read the documentation for fs-driver. In case you haven't I'll quote: "What limitations arise from not maintaining access rights? The current version of the Ext2 file system driver does not maintain access rights. All users can access all the Ext2 volumes that a drive letter is created for. For example, if a drive letter has been created for an Ext2 volume, which is the root volume of a Linux installation, you can simply read and modify files such as /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. User names are readable and passwords of these users can be quite easily cracked and modified! Therefore the current Ext2 file system driver does not fit for installations which require restrictive rights policies. It should be sufficient for your computer at home, which is used by one or a few users only. Furthermore, you should create drive letters for a root volume of a Linux installation only if you know exactly what you are doing." I guess you need to trust the family, but mistakes are easily made. I am not in front of a windows computer now - is it easy to disable the driver, which would save accidents!
