Will it spider the titles of the threads? If so, I'd rather the archive hack didn't touch private forums at all.

As far as them spidering the original thread, there is no way to get them to spider the original thread unless you use a hack like fastforward's hack of filburt's hack, but they can be a bit messy.

Messy is fine so long as it successfully spiders the original thread.

This one is good, because there is a link provided at the top of all pages "Click here to view the original thread" and people can click on it.

Yes, but experience has taught me that people online are inherently lazy, and 9 times out of 10 won't click the link. Is there any way for the archive hack to at least display any html code in the threads its archiving so that images will show up (in their correct places in the thread) as it's a security concern for me to have URLs displayed as text instead of as the links they're meant to be.
