It does NOT means disk storage. : The following are the files found under two directories on : gts.torfree.net ... So, what's the big deal? I've looked at some of the files .. they seem innocent enough. : Notice that some of the graphics have very peculiar names like fucku. : Wonder what is there? At your insistence, I downloaded this one. The JPEG image cannot be resolved with any viewer I have. I had suspected that 'FUCKU.JPG' (the upper case is significant; there is not such file as 'fucku.jpg'.. would be a graphic of your smiling face. But as I said, my vieweres could make no sense of it. Do you thin perhaps your picture might be in 'asshole.jpg'? Haven't tried that one. Other files that I downloaded were quite innocuous. For example, 'Harris.gif' is a balck-and-white picture of Mike Harris (probably a news photo). Then again, perhaps you have an interesting definition of obscenity .. hey, call the cops and tell them there's a picture of Mike on the net! That'll shake 'em up! : Now the subdirectories of images ... Omigosh! Noses! Wtihout even a veil! Cars! A mothe and baby! A lawnmower! Golly, you're onto something now, Nabil! And you fell for Becker's little trick of setting up an empty directory called 'smut' and then denying access! You really, really, wanted to take a look in there, didn't you? --Jim
