Sure, people who aren't in charge of security I'm sure like the ease of use. Doesn't mean it makes sense or that we should be supporting that. What we should have is a way to allow administrators to configure a system for exactly what they want to allow, and it doesn't seem like we're doing that today and therefore we should fix it. This isn't the only area we have that issue in. Thanks, Stephen
