That's not better. That's worse. If you allow people to upload, see,
and download files without restriction and anonymously, then within days
you'll find your system a repository for warez, mp3s, and other illegal
software.

Sure... Microsoft NT and Microsoft 2000 have a reputation that their ftp
service is so bad that everyone just turns it completely off.
You can set up FTP on your Qube to be insecure as well; just read the
instructions you can find on the 'net.
