New Post: MOSS 2007 - anonymous access to the SPServices or Sharepoint Web services for public internet site

Hi does anyone have some ideas for the best practice of using SPServices and MOSS 2007 Web services for public internet site? Is it possible to call SPService and GetListItems from the client side JavaScript code to e.g. read items from a list?

On our public internet site server, the "_vti_bin" folder is blocked for security reason so SPService will have issue to call the _vti_bin/Lists.asmx. So we have to change the rule exceptions on IIS to allow to access the Lists.asmx and Webs.asmx but then it would leave a security hole because the anonymous users might be able to have "Update" or "Delete" access to a list by using Lists.asmx

Is there is solution for that if we don't want to unblock the _vti_bin/*.asmx and only use client side code and SPService to read items from a list?
