Here's a variety of mails I received from visitors who thought that I had hacked their system and exposed their HD to everyone using THIS LINK :) It does nothing more than show the person that clicked it the contents of THEIR drive. Noone else can view the contents on your HD like this :) It goes without saying that I replied to everyone that mailed me about this.
NASTY, VERY NASTY mail :)

Subject: Biggest collection of warez!
That collection of warez, is this a joke?
I'm not trying to be sarcastic but I think that either someone made a
link that directs you to your own C drive to make you think that you
hit the jackpot or someone has hacked into MY C drive and that causes
my some concern.
If you see these folders: xxxx, xxxx, xxxxx, xx, xxx, xxxxx,
please let me know and be warned that someones hacking into other
people's shit and throwing it on the web.
It took 6 mails to explain it to the person that sent me the following mail, but we worked it out :)

Subject: Why is my C drive Exposed on your your webpage???????????
I must say it comes as Quite a shock to wake up in the morning and go to
my favorite web page (Retrogames) and see on the front page that my
ENTIRE hard drive is EXPOSED!!!! What the FUCK is THIS!!!! I Don't have
any Idea how this happened or where you found it or if you guy's are the
culprit. If you are the culprit and are resposible for this......I will
see that I spend a rediculous amount of time FUCKING-UP Your Page and
making your lives MISERABLE!!!! This is FUCKING BULLSHIT!!!!! I guess
you can say I am a bit STEEMED!!! Please, I love your site and visit it
often. I don't want to wreck any possitive relationship. Just Tell Me
(If you know) how the Hell did this happen and How it can be prevented
so it doesn't happen again. BTW: I don't care If you or anyone else
decides to Leech from me as I'm willing to give to anyone that ask's.
What I am worried about is my Private things. Just think how you would
feel in my position. Maybe you guy's can be wonderfull people and tell
me how I can maybe protect my hard drive from these kind of misdeads in
the future. If their is anything I might have done to Upset or Wrong you
guy's than I definately apologize. But PLEASE, if you know anything
Please stop and remove the post that contains my stuff, also I don't
like to deal with warez and I don't have my own site or anything I'm
just some regular home computer user that aparently got shafted up the
Ass by someone. Please, again if you know anything or are responsible in
anyway I kindly ask you to STOP! Thank you.
