fyi, more evidence security wasn't thought about too seriously Message 13998195 They shouldn't surface that sort of functionality. Instead they should have said eg: Error #5001 -- contact SI-admin and tell them what you were doing. Now i know how they do it and if i really felt like pushing the issue i could probably find a way around it.

My understanding is that on five separate occasions people's real identities have been divulged through programming snafus. In some cases this has caused personal and business harm. Do you know this to be true?

"My point of view is that lawyers are generally bad (I am one, BTW) but that managers who operate with disregard of customers and personal privacy are equally bad, and if lawyers are the only thing that will get their attention, that's sad but it may also be a necessary evil in modern society." VERY well said! short and sweet, i say these bozo's oughta' have their asses handed to them. the 'rollout' fiasco was bad enough... the lying bullshit post from busby, and lack of communication for days on end, is the clincher. jack 'em up and take their money!!! :) mark
