Maybe there's one thing more.  This whole question and response thing was a
silly waste.  UNIX is understood to be a multi-user system.  If the vendor
distributes files world-readable, then the vendor is responsible for what
happens to them and you are not.  If, of course, you changed the default
permissions on the files, you might be in a more exposed position, but why on
earth would you have done that?  Assuming you didn't, maybe the answer is to
not watch the users so closely, to keep your nose out of other people's
activities, and to treat your fellow humans to a new, more relaxed, accepting,
respectful, and friendly Bill.

And if you really feel someone on your system is a creep, kick him the hell
off!
