Won't work. I've never bothered to try and had 1 or 2 reports that it
didn't work. I don't care enough to debug and fix it. If you can fix it,
go ahead. I'll accept patches. ;).

Reason is simple: A) modules are not more unsafe than all built-in
(literal quote from Alan Cox), and B) for whoever does claim that it is
more secure, why the &$%&@ do you use a DC10+ card in that very
important server with credit card info and bank account notices of
everyone in the whole wide world? Oh, it's a desktop? ...

You'll get the point. Make it a module and it'll work.

HTH,
Ronald
