I have had to turn off Forum Code, HTML Code and Images inside posts because of a serious security issue that I can't fix until I upgrade the forum to get a new version that lets the fix work.

A new version is supposed to be out soon so I am going to have to jump on that right away. Everything should be fine with those features turned off but this problem applies to any forum on the web that allows special code or HTML so look out!

@, if you have time, I'm curious to know what you mean by security issue. A virus?

Sort of, but how about I don't get too specific and make it easy for anyone

Ok, I got ya. Something involving the govenment or top secret.
Don't worry, I won't give them your home address. And I won't answer my phone either.
You can count on me.

It is important thing to protect this site. When SFN is down, there are a lot of people wandering around mumbling to themselves. We cannot let that happen, now, can we?

Whatever it takes @tomic! If this site goes down, I'm going to end up talking to myself....again.

(Really?) Oh yes! ;-)
