Change silver theme image name "shell.png" to avoid Modsecurity big logs with

[data "/shell.png"] [severity "CRITICAL"

For the file .../horde/themes/silver/graphics/shell.png

YES, a perfectly normal file no problem, however names in modsecurity  
give allerts in ModSecurity if installed on an Apache server

A quickfix would be to rename the file from shell.png to e.g. shll.png  
and theme code referring to the name.
