so say I'm an unalterable admin and user X has the ability to administer users. my account would be protected from him making any changes, unless I have this hack installed, which he can then add a link to my account, even though he shouldn't be allowed to alter it because its protected in the config file.

Adding a link does not alter user's profile.

Uninstalled for now.

Da420, were you ever able to resolve this issue?

No, unfortunately I was never able to resolve this issue so I had to disable the hack.

Nice!! **installed**

Psionic, I installed this hack, did the two changed fields, and uploaded the file. I attempted to link my account to another of the ones I use, and it said all went well. When I clicked that little arrow thing next to my name, I got a small white box that says Switch Accounts. Thats all it says, and thats all it does. Can you think of a reason its not working? I'm using VB 3.5.1
Thanks.

This has not been checked on a vBulletin version prior to 3.5.4. Please make sure 3.5.4 is installed on your site...

I updated my site, (boy did I fall behind!) And it works perfectly. Thank you so very much.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
