Is there a way for you to patch other versions? This is IMHO a really big concern. Given a broad deployment of stuff that can't obviously be updated, any security solution should not leave people unsecured just because they didn't upgrade. So a solution should be designed so it doesn't get applied in an insecure context, like an old AT missing the patching we hope will one day make this issue irrelevant. cheers Chaals -- Charles McCathie Nevile - web standards - CTO Office, Yandex chaals@yandex-team.ru - - - Find more at http://yandex.com
