  you are right, but how could it happend?

  my home directory was:

drwxrwxr-x  126 erik     root         8192 Sep 30 03:13 erik

  it must have happened when I installed jre or Limewire (but I
installed both of these as erik under my home directory, not as root)...
very strange... I am sure it was owned by erik, group was erik and
permissions were 700.

  anyway, thanks!
