Classified Military Documents found on Kazaa

Another reason not to use P2P file-sharing applications.

It seems some Dutch Military Officer who was using Kazaa at home had it mis-configured - he was sharing his WHOLE COMPUTER with everyone over the Internet.

Included on his computer were classified military documents that were being worked on at home.

Oops.

Perhaps the moral of the story is don't take your work home?
