Upgrade your forum to the latest version as it fixed such a security issue. Or at least apply the patch.

What exactly are you saying is an issue ?

If you believe the mod has an issue then I suggest you disabled or remove it, and contact the author to confirm if there really is an issue.

Sounds like you might have a rogue staff member.

Check your control panel log in Statistics and Logs. Check for unknown names and cross check IP addresses.

EDIT: with this kind of stuff going on you had better have your user id number in undeletable and unalterable users in includes/config.php on the server.
