Yes I am sure.  Unless you mention that by the same black and white
yardstick, virtually no software is "secure".

Alan asked for information on CMS products that support IIS Authentication.
He clearly stated this is for an intranet, and requires integration with
their existing enterprise Active Directory.  He didn't ask for advice on
choosing a web server, and it was quite obvious that he (like most of us)
has real-world IT constraints and requirements to live with, not just
philisophical/religious ideals.

I really don't want to get into this debate yet again... If you can't offer
advice to a question, don't post.  Simply ranting every time Microsoft is
mentioned in a post does not help anyone.

Don't get me wrong ... You have posted some great information on open source
CMS's before, a topic which you seem to know a lot about.  But the Microsoft
bashing and OSS snobbery is just getting tired - this is a list about CMS.
