vi secure

Recently started using vi macros.
When attempting to use one which accessed the external shell, got the following message:
"The ! command is not supported when the secure edit option is set."
When attempting to ":set nosecure" got:
"set: the secure option may not be turned off."
When attempting to "set nosecure" in my .exrc file, got:
set nonumber
.exrc, 44: set: the secure option may not be turned off
.exrc, 44: Ex command failed: pending commands discarded
Looking through all the man pages, vi references, tutorials, and the the oreilly vi "bible",
can't find anything...
Is "set secure" a compiled in setting?
From FreeBSD vi man page:
-S Run with the secure edit option set, disallowing all access to
external programs.
and
secure [off]
Turns off all access to external programs.
