[FX.php List] Do your Web Publishing Accounts show up in FMS as Clients?

[Jonathan Schwartz]

I have done some more observation.

I have one Windows implementation and many OS X ones.  I see the web 
users appear much more frequently in the Windows implementation.  I 
see the same on the Mac side only when the system is bogged down.

Not the Red flag I thought it was.
