Napster, the famous MP3 sharing program, has a serious security leak -- it exposes users' IP addresses, claims Richard Smith, an Internet security consultant. Napster's authors say that they are currently working on the problem, but now, users that think that they remain anonymous, are wrong..
We recommend everybody to use CuteMX, which has received better rankings in many places (including After Dawn) and is more stable MP3 sharing tool. Get it here!
