What are the shared folders in Windows?

Shared folder permissions are used to restrict access to a folder or file that is shared over the network. Folder sharing is normally used to grant remote users access to file and folders over the network. Web sharing is used to grant remote users access to files from the Web if Internet Information Services (IIS) is installed.When folders are shared, it is important to keep in mind that you can share folders only, and not files. For users that are locally logged on to a computer, shared folder permissions are irrelevant. Shared folders that are moved are no longer shared. When shared folders are copied, the copy is not shared. The original shared folder however remains shared.A few disadvantages associated with share permissions are listed below:Shared folder permissions do not have as many permission options as NTFS permissions. The only shared folder permissions that can be assigned to users/groups are Read, Change, or Full Control.Share permissions are not inheritable.You cannot back up or audit shared folder permissions.If you move or even rename a shared folder, the shared folder permissions for that particular folder no longer exist.

Why can't you put LimeWire in your public folder?

Limewire is software that connects your computer to other peoples computers and other people can connect to your computer. You need to ensure that the people connecting to your computer do not have access to all of your private stuff on your computer and that they cannot put things on your computer that you would not want on there such as viruses and malware. The Limewire application would normally be run from your applications folder and you would set up a separate folder away from all your other stuff that only included the things you wanted to share via Limewire.
