[support] Drupal-7.4 theme isntallation

[Ursula Pieper]

It looks like the first message might be a browser warning, which is
correct, because you are (with a vanilla installation) sending a password
unencrypted. If it indeed is a browser warning, than you'd get rid of the
warning by changing your browser configuration. If you want to fix the
issue, and send your password encrypted, you need to install the securelogin
module.

The second message is also a common one: The automatic installation of a
theme requires that your server runs a ftp server.
I consider that a security risk, so I prefer not to use the automatic
theme/module installation through the interface, but install these using
drush on the command line.
It is also much faster than using the interface.

Best regards, Ursula
