A customer of mine is interested in using the CyberCash product for
allowing users to purchase items from their pages on-line.  Now, does
anyone know of any possible (or purely paranoid) reasons that this product
might be a security risk to have on my server?  Does anyone have anything
to say about it?  Experiences... hearsay... or just commentary.

Their site is at http://www.cybercash.com if you want to check it out
yourself.

Thanks in advance for any ideas you help provoke.
