kouka Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 so I was messing around on iTunes, just listening to some stuff and I noticed on the left side between "Devices" (my iPod was plugged in) and "Playlist" was a "Shared" option that said "Want me off, Lock your system biatch". I immediately disconnected from my internet and it went away. I reconnected and it's back. The only thing that seems to work is if I am on a neighbors signal (which I am now). The only thing I can think is that this person got through my soulseek, but even with that closed it's still there. Any idea how I can block this fool, or whatever it is?

controlthebleeding Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 someone's on your wifi network.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kouka Posted June 13, 2009 Author Share Posted June 13, 2009 yeah, but how the shit are they on my iTunes? and how can I lock it? I just reset my modem and they don't seem to be there anymore, but I'm sure that's only temporary fuck, I hate computers sometimes.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafmx Posted June 13, 2009 Share Posted June 13, 2009 it sounds like you must have your itunes as a shared library with people on your network. it is an option. or else, maybe their library is shared and you can see it on your end under devices. edit / preferences sharing check and see if 'share my library on my local network' is selected. and if so, you can select 'require password'.

teganandsara Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Dude you need to password your wifi as that seems to be where he is coming from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettall Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 You can share your iTunes library....just disable this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brettall Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Also, this: WANT ME OFF? LOCK YOUR SYSTEM BIATCH is pretty hilarious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 haha, yeah you need to encrypt your wireless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmonaut Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Is it possible to only share a certain playlist with someone over a network? If so, make him the worst mix anyone has ever heard. Make sure it has a few Loverboy songs. Also, if you find out who it is and want to fuck with him and you need an accomplice, I'm a very short drive away.

deafmx Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 yeah, you can choose what you want shared from your library. it's probably more of a concern that he's hacking your internet. if you click on his devices name, does it load a library of music you can stream?

burdenx Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Why would he fuck with him? Dude could just keep stealing his wireless without him knowing but instead it almost seems he's trying to help him out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomas Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 Maybe he was not stealing it, but just a nice neighbor checking out his neighbors networks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brennan Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 yah, encrypt that shit. there is really no way to completely secure a wireless network if someone feels the need to put the time and effort into breaking into it but a password certainly goes a long way.

partysmasher Posted June 14, 2009 Share Posted June 14, 2009 someone's just sharing your signal and has their itunes library set to share. My old neighbour's library was shared with my computer for ages, must have been accidental, he had a shit load of porn on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew a guy freshman year, and he could see everyone's libraries on his floor of his dorm, and some guy had some animal porn on there.
