I have to agree with the first post!! although there are a lot of things I like about Puppy and the top of the list has to be how the developers have gotten wireless working so well. However upon closer inspection I too made the same observations about the security risks and also read the lame reasoning on their forums trying to rationalize away the problems Puppy has with running in the root account. This didn't really dawn on me until I actually did an install on one of my hard drives and noticed that it never asked for user accounts and passwords and it didn't even ask for a root password. Then I started asking some pointed questions on their forum and soon realized what a turkey Puppy really is. They need to change the name from Puppy Linux to Turkey Linux. Needless to say it did not take me very long to format the hd that I had installed it on.
