There are solutions to all of these problems. I have yet to talk to anyone that doesn't think SSL everywhere is the right idea; but many people think as you do - that it is just too hard. If we take that approach (the give up approach), then of course it will prove true. If you think about it - you're saying that policy should drive protocol. But isn't it the other way around? The protocol should drive policy? There is only one question to answer: what is the right approach for users? Then, once determined, figure out how to get there. If security is in the future, we should make it secure now. Mike > > regards > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > >
