In KDE, I can see pics of users when i open up .thumbnails as other users?


In KDE how is it possible for one user to open up his home directory and see the thumbnails of another user in .thumbnails? I went ahead and browsed some pics, no not porn, then I closed that user session, logged back in as a different user and those same pics were in the .thumbnail Directory?

Sounds like your user directory permissions are not set up correctly.

Well for starters, just 'ls -l' your /home directory.
User directories should be 700 (drwx------).
