Hello,
When I upgraded to MS4W, I noticed the deflate (compression) module was
not working. I added the following lines in http.conf, and I was just
wondering if it was a security concern or not.
####NEW LINES###

SetOutputFilter DEFLATE

mod_deflate is not enabled by default in MS4W's Apache. I am not very
familiar with this module, but for sure you must first uncomment the
appropriate LoadModule line in httpd.conf (~line#87) before using the
DEFLATE settings.
