Eliminating deprecation warnings

There are several ways to eliminate deprecation warnings for the  
older, less secure functions. The simplest is simply to define  
_CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE or use the warning pragma. Either will  
disable deprecation warnings, but of course the security issues that  
caused the warnings still exist. It is far better to leave  
deprecation warnings enabled and take advantage of the new CRT  
security features.

that's what I tend to do :)
