Don't mistake me for being pro-M$ in any way, but the current set of
FPE must be run as root, but installs as suid-user (user who own's
directory).  It's not particularly smart, and it does make a mess of
your apache configs (you may want to feed it a config file all it's
own), but it no longer installs suid root.

Dave.
