Zigs, look at it like this

You get home.

Someone has broken into your house. To do so, they took advantage of a fault in your front door lock that meant someone could open it with a pin

When you change your front door, do you put the old lock back on?

And do you warn people, hey guys I'm going to be broken into tonight...

feebee, ziggy - I think they had more important things to worry about then a forum used by a small %age of the users.... I'm sure if they were haphazard in cehcking out the site and just bunged it back up ASAP there would have been uproar if personal data had got compromised

Who needs tips on using a forum - just log in and click around....

I think the people whose financial data might be at risk would prefer their focus be on checking the data integrity then a forum

All I`m saying is.......bet business doesn`t pick up wink wink

Why shouldn't it - personally I think the boyz have done the right thing.
