hello all

i do not know if this is a security issue. but this is surprising.

there is a win9x application - e2fs that can explore linux partitions on
dual boot machines.

here is the homepage

http://uranus.it.swin.edu.au/~jn/linux/

i have tried the program. basic procedure is boot the machine in windows
and run e2fs. you can browse entire linux partition. who cares about
file permissions!

most importantly, is there a way to prevent this?
