yep i know what you mean,
tried to run it as something other than root myself
i guess if i was really worried about it
i would try fooling with it myself to see if i could
run it under something else.
it is a little scarry to know that others can grab files from you on the
system
so you wonder what else they could do!

So, I'm still running it as root. It's a good thing that I have no one else here who knows gnu/linux, or I would have a big security whole in my apartment. As it is, I hope that no one from the outside world is able to crash and exploit the program to gain access to the console on which it runs. If it could be exploited, then I guess I'm screwed.
