I have to recode the page so that the country hack can't be used then reset _everyone's_ country setting to remove the non-standard ones, that will take time (something that I can't have at the moment) so 'til then the country settings have been removed. Thank the folks that found a exploit on the forum and abused it rather than notifing me.

I've never programmed in asp, but I think the easiest "fix" for all these bugs would be to check the source server when a user submits his profile in pop_profile.asp.

<%

Referrer = Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")

if Referrer != "www.soldatforums.com" ... don't accept the form
