Is it my imagination or was the thread about a PM CLI script removed?

I removed it and I'm working on a counter-measure for it :P

(why you don't just request a server side solution I don't know ...)

Fair enough. A possible spam "exploit" I guess?

Was JustHalfs request, not mine. Apologies for causing trouble.

Also, does "working on a counter-measure" mean possibly removing WWW::Mechanize functionality (though that sounds rather hard to do) ? Or just a fix against possible spam using it or similar methods?

PS. am available for boards.ie exploit writ^H^H^H^Htesting ... if you want.

Also please apply apologies for incoherent drunk posting where necessary.
