 | View Full Version : Disable the member list. Avail 04-29-2002, 01:10 PM I think the member list (http://www.webhostingtalk.com/memberlist.php) should be disabled. Think about how easy it would be to write a script that fakes POST data to send an email to every single WHT member. Just a thought. cperciva 04-29-2002, 01:59 PM If it's so easy, why has nobody done it? p1net 04-29-2002, 05:44 PM Well it looks like somebody has taken notice to this post as the memberlist is now disabled!!

Once any single board's member list is "discovered", then all vBulletin boards will be probed. The questions is: how long before the spammers discover the motherlode of valid email addresses. Personally, I'm glad it has been disabled here. :D Speakerguy 05-06-2002, 05:11 AM Darn...they shut it off right when I was about to nail it.... LOL j/k... But seriously...that is a bad thought...my forums are powered by vbulletin too....:eek: roly 05-18-2002, 02:05 AM PLEASE re-enable it:) |
