You can "open" any page for editing in FrontPage. Doesn't necessarily mean that the site in question is insecure.
Try File>Open ... Enter "http://www.yahoo.com/"; in the File Name field and open it. You get an "editable" copy of Yahoo's main page. But you're working with a local copy, and can't save it to the server.

I was goofing around with Microsoft FrontPage and opened a web page with it... expecting it to ask a password or something... but it gave me complete access. Can't imagine someone is serving a website without at least authentication. Explains how some pages get hacked. I didn't do anything to that site... but thought how easy it would be if this were a merchant to direct sales from that site to another. Sorry, guess I've been watching too many Oliver Stone movies. :-) -- Dwacon www.dwacon.com The information in this electronic mail message is sender's business Confidential and may be legally privileged.
