Hi

There are two ways to install php on win2k,  either manually or using the
installshield.

I have always installed php using the windows installshield which has
always worked perfectly. (win2k/iis)

The paragraph below suggests you should not install php this way.

Can anyone tell me why this says it is not secure?. Is there
reason for concern re. my previous installations?

TIA

Be aware, that this setup of PHP is not secure. If you would like to have a
secure PHP setup, you'd better go on the manual way, and set every option
carefully. This automatically working setup gives you an instantly working
PHP installation, but it is not meant to be used on online servers.
