    I was dragging and dropping files on my computer and I accidentally dropped a few into the Azureus window. It automatically took those files and created a torrent from them and it took me a few minutes before I realized and stopped them. Does anyone know if they could have been transmitted over the internet in that time? I didn't post the link anywhere or anything, but it did seed for a few minutes.

    For the future, is there a way to prevent drag and dropping into Azureus so that it isn't so "convenient" to create torrents?
