This sounds great. Unfortunately at the moment I haven't even got a stable freevo box up let alone a devel box I could test it on. I would be a great addition to the upcoming release though, could you submit a feature request in the tracker [1] so that Adam doesn't miss this and we make sure it gets committed? Thanks, John [1] http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=46652&atid=446898 P.S. I've cross-posted this to the users list as I'm sure there'll be quite a few people there who'll be interested to see it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Protect Your Site and Customers from Malware Attacks Learn about various malware tactics and how to avoid them.
