Reuters | Poles flood Web to scour secret communist-era files
by Rattle at 5:04 am EST, Feb 6, 2005

] Poles have flooded Web sites to view a list of names
] taken from communist-era files made public for the first
] time since the fall of Communism, searching for mentions
] of family members.
]
] Amid warnings that the record of a certain name on the
] files may not mean the person was an informer or a spy,
] the list -- first distributed by a journalist to
] colleagues at the weekend -- became the most searched
] item on the Web.

] The list covers operatives, potential collaborators and
] victims, with other names simply being mentioned. It is
] unknown who leaked the directory of names onto the Internet.
