Pradeep, I would not suggest copying the /CFIDE/ scripts folder into every site root. This can become a nightmare to manage when you need to update with patches or new versions. Instead you should create a virtual directory.
I do recommend you setup a virtual host just for ColdFusion administrator, this makes it easy to restrict, log, etc. Some use the built-in JRun web server for this purpose and that also works well in many scenarios. -- Pete Freitag - Adobe Community Professional http://foundeo.com/ - ColdFusion Consulting & Products http://petefreitag.com/ - My Blog http://hackmycf.com - Is your ColdFusion Server Secure?
