Re: Site Traffic Reporting

I am very skittish about it, since I don't have awstats installed,
but see quite a few requests for /cgi-bin/awstats.pl in my weblogs.

Perl has been demonstrated to be a security risk in many previous
versions and I don't want to be the booby who proves that the
version of Perl which awstats uses is a security risk, too.
