Frankly, I think the suggestion of using non-writable media (ie. CD-ROMs)
is rather unpractical. Most sufficiently interesting web sites contain
ever-changing & constantly updated information, such as news, various
daily features, etc.
Not a practical solution.
I agree with other suggestions on the list that less confining
methods of securing web servers are currently available, its just
a matter of competency & knowledge, something that seems to be in
short supply these days (as witnessed by the recent high-profile
hacks). :-/
