Is anybody on the list using mod_security? Thoughts? Performance?

It allows you to filter get and post requests before they are handed off 
to scripts. I wonder if it will do cookies as well?

It looks like an excellent way to add an extra layer of security to 
anything that's being run via Apache. In the latest version you can 
apparently chroot the environment in which scripts are run:
