electricsheep started receving loads of bogus sheeps to prompt the update...

to those who want to wait the ubuntu electrisheep 2.7, without being flooded and keeping their old sheep meanwhile, i suggest to:

1-delete the bogus sheeps
2-check how much space is filled by the remaining sheeps
3-gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/screensavers/electricsheep.desktop
4-modify this line:

Exec=electricsheep --root 1 --zoom 1

to

Exec=electricsheep --root 1 --zoom 1 --max-megabytes numberofmegabytesofcurrentsheeps

this should stop all future downloads
