The Moz team seams to have missed this one. On the network I used to
run, we exclusivly used Netscape because of the portability of user
profiles. You could set a new user up in seconds by coping a generic
user profile, plug the guy in and you're off. What the Moz team has
come up with in this 'salted junk' shuts Moz/NN out of a LOT of places
it would normally be welcomed. Yeah, yeah, we know about the security
thing with profiles.... (Yawn)
