Occasionally on the side with the playlists somthing pops up like Johns Music, and I can play these files. Where do these come from, why are they only there occasionally, is there any way to get the files onto my computer? Is this illigle sharing of files, if it is am I illiglelly shareing my files?

Don't quote me on this, but the way I understand it is that you can see and hear (but not copy or burn) tunes that are on other users machines. A guy here at work has it and says that he has access to all of the other users' (here at work) libraries, but only to listen. Sounds like that's what's going on with you maybe...

Pretty much what Cartman said, you are seeing someone who is shareing their playlist with you. It only works over local networks, for up to 5 ppl i think. There is a sharing options menu under the preferences menu. On a mac its ITunes/preferences/shareing...on a pc i have no clue how you turn it on off.
