What exactly are you worried about?  If anyone other than the site developers 
can write to web.config, you've got a problem.  Only they and the asp.net 
process should be able to read from it.

If internet (or intranet!) users can access _any_ files on your file system -- 
vs. having them executed or "served" (e.g. for images or CSS files), you've got 
more troubles than I care to imagine.
