Basically, if you have used Messenger on a system before, other people can
view the data within your sharing folders, since there is no security on
this feature.
Go to C:\documents and settings\profile name\Local Settings\application
data\Microsoft\Messenger
and then click on any of those folders
Open the sharing folder subfolder within the folder.
Everytime a user signs into Messenger, a folder is created
You do not need to signin to the users Messenger account to look at the
files on their sharing folder, they are on your system and very easy to
access.
Also, you know the name of the contacts that are on their lists, because
each contact will be a new folder.
This needs to be fixed, and fast.
