I've been thinking about why the Other just leave the people alone on the island . 2 things pop to my head.

1. The Others allow them to live because they are part of the Dharma project possibly and they are studying them. But then we would have to wonder why they "hunted" the tail section survivors. The only time we've seen them within the survivors is when they snuck someone in .... and this is to spy and what not... so maybe perhaps they are unarmed like Michael said, and they know they have the guns so they dont approach....

2. I saw this somewhere but it wasnt brought out to attention much.... Perhaps the Magnetic field that is within the hatch is possibly keeping them from coming near the survivors? This would be interesting. Some reason that they "cant" get near them... hmmm..

Anyways Let me know what you think....

Me, well, I'm a man of faith. Do you really think all this...is an accident? That we, a group of strangers survived, many of us with just superficial injuries? Do you think we crashed on this place by coincidence, especially this place? We were brought here for a purpose, for a reason, all of us. Each one of us was brought here for a reason.
