the thing that upsets me is that somewhere in windows, it says "to share this file, drag it to the shared documents folder" - but for me right now, it's more like "drag to the shared documents folder, then open the permissions page, hit 'advanced', click the checkbox, etcccc" EVERY TIME YOU ADD A FILE
this <i>can't</i> be the way it's designed to work. for one thing, nobody on a network could share new files they were creating, because (unless i'm wrong) only admins could be going in and setting these permissions. i guess i could test that by creating another user account without admin rights.
