Question

Photos publicly being displayed

Nov 29, 2011 5:24AM PST

A friend just called me with this one... She uses Picasa to manage her photos. If anyone goes into Google and does an image search on her name, here Picasa photos show up. Not just people on her home network, but anywhere on the public internet. How can this be resolved?

Once public, it's gone baby gone.

Lesson learned?
