bilboy, i also like your polls and always vote in them, i also have rasied a concern with debbie Could one of the Admins please advise us all how you intende to keep private information from being hacked after one of the members (Andre) revealed the following in one of his posts
"The IP addresses as you say are intended to only be seen by Admins, But with a message forum such as this hosted by SimpleMachines, (not renowned for their expertise in forum security) you only have to view the page via a simple hack tool that reveals an IP such as yours. The program that does this is tiny, less than 1MB. Then you just go to an IP trace website, or use something as simple as ZoneAlarm and you can have it reveal someone's name, address, and quite often tel. No. There's nothing dodgy in doing this, it's part of one of the main features on ZoneAlarm. That's why I know your bulshitting by the way mate. "
I like others are concerned that Andre hacking information we do not necessarily want made public will cause us to receive unwanted SPAM, i think at the very least Andre should be kicked out for admitting to hacking the site, very unsavoury
