Apologies if this is in the wrong forum, I dont know where else to put it 🙂

I have a small guild site for world of warcraft and I was thinking about enabling html on our forums for flash siggys, I stumbled across a thread here that said flash siggys were disabled on kirupa forums because someone had used it to gain an admin password.  
Its worrying me now so I thought id ask about how they managed to get a password through a flash file, I know its just a silly guild website but id like to make sure there wont be any big security issues if i do enable it 😕

Thanks in advance!

hmm well- the only way I can think of to fix that is- to authenticate the sig before they submit somehow
