A very good point.  I have nothing of value on that
machine...other than the work required to restore it to
the desired configuration if the machine became unusable.
My website receives very little traffic - so while
defacing it would be annoying, nobody would see it.

My biggest concern is that someone might use my machine
for other purposes, like spam or DOS attacks...which
could give TWCRR cause to kick me off.

TIA,
Chris
