The earlier bug fix caused a new bug to arise. Yes, you may smack me with the cluebat. I f00ked up in my bugfix. *slaps self*

BUG FOUND! A minor, harmless bug was found in the Make vB.org Post section of /admincp/hackadmin.php - to upgrade, re-download the zipfile (clear your cache first!) and overwrite hackadmin.php on your server with the new one. If you haven't yet installed the HTL, make sure to get the latest download and you should be fine. Thanks Rein for the report ^_^

What version of PHP are you running on that Windows server?

Try actually uploading the .htl file as an ascii file, for a change. It shouldn't work, but with those unpredictable windows servers (*sigh*) it might just work...

Gonna be? as far as the hack itself goes, it's already much bigger
