I'm curious. Why are so many system-generated files world-writable? On my Mandriva laptop, every day I get warnings that world-writable files are found in /tmp, /far/lib/ /var/run/ and /var/spool, and every day msec reports that it has changed the mode of several files in /var/log/. Why are they created like that?
