I haven't used LW in a long time, so the following may be out of date...

if LW still prompts a user if they want to let it (LW) browse their HDD for files, then IMHO LW is partly at fault...that is the most stupid/criminal/lamer aspect of the installer (or perhaps was)...

now if said user on their own decided to share the C: drive then he/she is at fault...

my bet says its the installer...yeah, the user in the end was ignorant, but still...I've always had an issue with that part of the installer....of course the LW devs don't think much of me (nor do I of them) so its no surprise they ignored my comments in the past on this subject...
