Morpheus Users - Sharing More Than They Think? - P2P-Zone

Ever since MusicCity (now Streamcast) tanked their old opennap client and replaced it w/Morpheus, rumors have floated around concerning a security flaw having to do with IP numbers and hard drive access. A lot of us spent considerable time and energy shooting it down, pointing out that it's really nothing more than a typical P2P in normal operation.

Well, things may have changed recently, as this news report suggests. On the other hand, maybe not. So far the lack of detailed information makes it too early to tell.
