The contents of the output.txt do not give any information about your site that you cannot get from browsing your site or its users, the fact that it's just bot information makesit even less desirable info

Glad you like the mod

OK now I feel a right idiot, it never occurred to me to just create the needed file in my forum root directory and CHMOD just the file for read/write access. I can't see the woods for the trees!

On a side note due to me making a slight error while setting up the hack I have threads made by the hack in all sorts of places, the threads don't actually exist and just make the forum look a mess. Any idea on how to remove them? Somebody mentioned about a SQL thing to do but I have no idea about that.

Thanks for the support.

Oh and I forgot to mention that I am running v3.8.5 of vBulletin.

gigawiz.

EDIT - I currently have a specific forum for the threads created by this hack and if I don't put them there then they end up everywhere. How do I set it so as no threads are made at all and just the output.txt file is made?
