just as a precaution, i posted this because i didn't notice it anywhere else here.

there is a security hole that would allow the retrieval of peoples passwords that viewed certain threads.

if it's a double post, delete it, if not. then take the necessary precautions

Yea, I saw that one. It only applies if you allow users to put HTML code in posts/signatures. I don't allow that on the board, so it's a non-issue.

But thanks VERY much for the heads up, all future warnings are appreciated.

That's why I like this board.
Enough freedom to pretty much say what we want, but just enough moderation to let us have fun and stay safe.(or something like that) :sunny:

thanks James
