The plugins was what I was thinking of. I don't use any that do, but there are way more out there than I would ever use, so I threw out the possibility. What you say about permissions is true, but how many people go to that step? File security in Windows is such a hassle, that I don't even bother with it. Regular back-ups work better for me that file security. Although I guess that file security is much better in Linux and can probably be made more effective. -- emalvick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ emalvick's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=35382 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93204 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
