Pops, there was a big discussion a few months back on this subject that you
may benifit from.  Do a search for "ajax securing"; there was also another
big discussion that happened a few months back that I had bookmarked, but
just recently deleted my bookmarks and I could not find it easily in the
group.  But that search should get you going.

Hope this helps.
