All those of you who have cable internet access and are using it through
windows, be careful and make sure you have file and printer sharing
disabled. also check that there are no servers running on your machine.
Those using linux, fire up samba and browse the network. But make sure
you'r machine is secure. remember that cable is a broadcast network and
everyone shares the same signal. It is very easy for someone to put his
interface into promiscuous mode and see important information.
