I just received an interesting message regarding the [high][disable][you][/disable][/high] hack put out by Mutt. I have a forum on my site that is set up with the code in the forum title so it always shows as the user's forum (it is called "Boofos private Forum" when I am looking at it). Here is the actual note (name and other information has been removed for privacy reasons) I received.

just visiting your site....reading jokes.....I do not have a private forum site with you. I do not wish to either. In fact.....I do not wish to be registered now after seeing how your site does things with my registration. Cancel and delete immediately.
Everyone else has had a blast with it. I kind of figured this would happen someday though. I will not remove the hack OR the forum, but anyone attempting this, this is what can happen.
Don't it, though? The sad thing is, his registration had nothing whatsoever to do with the forum or him seeing his name on it. Registration information is kept totally confidential on the site. There are bound to be those that don't have a very keen sense of humor about such things.

Yes, and while you're at it. Rename Zed's forum to something else...
