User creates an account with the same username as admin - how is this possible?
As subject really. Only came to light as people were telling me that I wasn't receiving PMs (as in the option was turned off), checked my account details by clicking on my profile and then 'Edit user... -
3.8.6 Security Flaw - only affects 3.8.6?
Re: this story - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-10714192
Does this only affect 3.8.6 or does it affect earlier versions? -
This has been in VB for years and rears its ugly head on my forum. Case in point.
Search for 'car not starting very well' in a quick search and it results in vB passing a 16MB SQL statement... -

Hmm, although it would probably be a current VB4 license...Leave a comment:

I completely agree with the OP post too, except I'm leaving VB for IPB - I've had enough. One of my sites will stay VB as I can move mods I bought for the main forum over to it so I don't also throw away...Leave a comment:

lol, yeah, wonder why that is.
Come VB4 -> 5 upgrade time you won't be able to downgrade to the forum classic version, or you're hoping that people will make use of the blogs and CMS and...Leave a comment:

But, any discussion about VB4 is speculation anyway as it hasn't come to pass yet. It may be misleading, it may not be - point is, you're saying there will be a discount for VB5 for VB4 owners, people...Leave a comment:

Did you really need to start a new thread on this - search is your friend, or just click on any number of the VB4 related threads in here!Leave a comment:

Yeah, does seem a bit odd considering VB4 install is when you're likely to want ticket support.
But if you go for the suite, just remember that the upgrade to 5 will cost you a hell of a...Leave a comment:
