As a matter of fact if you are going to install "vb hacks" to the client, this means you have PHPmyadmin access, Admin CP access and FTP access to your client's server. I'm sure a client who handed so much keys to you will not mind adding your email address to a form in vb.com so that you can read vb.org threads.

I still think its a bit of a weird system. How many other PHP/Perl script sites do you see, where they sell a product, but are scared to let people into their posts, cos they think they may be doing something illegal?
well I'm in this business too and I can say nearly all commercial software that is open source like PHP and PERL scripts has such kind of self protection to keep illegal users away from at least support threads. Since you are in the business, I'm sure you'll understand that there is not much a PHP author who is trying to charge for his script can do to reduce illegal usage of his script. And this is a good and effective way to follow..
