SMS tells me I have 258 users with version 8 installed. Two of those are DA’s and 250 are local admins on their machines, not much to worry about right? ☺

Double that if users using it are browsing the internet from the machine with them installed. Triple that if they’re browsing as a local admin. Quadruple if they’re domain admins. On the other hand, if they’re off network (and will stay that way) for some reason, I’d be ok.
