Hi Ball,

I'm absolutely agree with your words, finally is a problem of be  
polite, and if somebody of us we don't want that our images are look  
by non authorised people we should put a password, we all know that  
internet is an open window..., but I repeat, beeing polite.

Saludos cordiales
Lluis
