Adult Software Solutions, I'm sorry I jumped all over you.
I was up all night with a "server down" situation where the guys in the DC are
clueless and I'm in a mood. I apologize.

Don't misunderstand me, I can't "take back" what I said - your sig says you do:
Quote:
PHP, MySQL, Flash, Actionscript, Java, Wowza, CMS, Tube, VOD, CRM, Dating, Social Networks, Paysites, TGPs, Directories and more.
You probably do a half decent job of all of those things. You don't have "security"
in that list and there's a reason for that. The problems to be solved are
AUTHENTICATION problems. You suggested a different AUTHORIZATION
method. The two are totally separate things. It's like say "Car won't start?
Just air up the tires". Completely nonsensical, but I I understand - few
software books and classes teach even the very basics of security, so you
would have no reason to have learned these things. If you're curious, the
first couple of chapters of any good security book will explain what those two
things are, authentication and authorization.
