Does anyone know anything about this?

It protects against stack-based attacks (buffer overruns, primarily),
which is the largest percentage of security holes. Easy to setup;
easy to install.
Thanks!

"My grandfather once told me that there are two kinds of people:
Those who do the work and those who take the credit. He told me to
try to be in the first group; there was much less competition."
- Indira Ghandi, the late Prime Minister of India
