Mortgage Data Leaked Over File Network
As if destroying the economy weren't enough...

http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5gqCosrdLVqek0gxcf9tnSNXSZ0Qw

Three spreadsheets containing more than 5,000 Social Security numbers and other personal details about customers of ABN Amro Mortgage Group were inadvertently leaked over an online file-sharing network by a former employee.

Tiversa Inc., a Pittsburgh company that offers data-leakage protection services, traced the origins of the ABN data to a Florida computer with the BearShare software installed.

BearShare, LimeWire and scores of other programs are designed to distribute and find songs, movies and other files over the Gnutella file-sharing network.
