Hear, hear - it couldn't have been put better Steve! I'm sure the majority of users are all in favour of a safer Internet. A slow server can always helped along by adding a new server to the network, and one that crashes every week can be monitored and restarted automatically, but if a user unknowingly releases confidential details (such as bank account logons) because of your unpatched nameserver, well that's a little more difficult to fix.
