The PHP encryption is one way.  There is now decrypt function.

I suppose someone could make a mod that used ID_MEMBER instead of memberName. It is unique and not really a security risk showing it. This would be a big mod though and the IM system would have to be overhauled and probably some other areas that I'm missing.

Of course they will, it safe guards the passwords... it is great that there is no decryption function. :)

About the "everyone can see all topics in the statistics"-problem:

I wrote a mod that changes the SQL-Querrys and therefopr checks the permissions. So nobody sees topic-names that he should not see...

[*uhm* no attachments alloud ?]

Well I will see if I can post it anywherer else !
