Thinking about installing FlashChat..security question

I am strongly thinking about installing integrated flashchat on my VB. My question to you guys would be , will it weaken the security on my forums? I'd rather keep my forum chat free that get it hacked. thanks

Just search the flashchat forums on the keyword 'hacked' and you will get a picture of the security problems.
I really like the program, but after getting hacked time and time again, I gave up on it.

yes. Actually I have searched here and found numerous threads where hackers have used flashchat to hack the forums. It's a great software but site security comes no. 1 . thanks for the post.
