    Ok, I know we get the webspace for free, but it's a little worrying when I link to an image and instead of the image loading, you're given a screen like below, where your password for boards is visable....

    Can it be fixed? Also there are issues deleting, and uploading stuff.

    I'd love to know how you managed to try to link to an image and ended up with your password in the URL (I know it shouldn't appear in the querystring at all, but even so).

    If you have problems with deleting files, can you supply examples to help us track down what might be causing it?

    Imade another thread on this board... I've managed todelete all my files from the webspace so I can't show you an example. When I get onto my main computer, I'll try simulate the problem and put it up.

    I know, I know!

    The server only seems tolerates a request every 10 to 20 seconds.

    I tried to delete a number of items serially from an account in quick sucession.
    It resulted in a screen not unlike Lumps (with password and username in plaintext in the URI).


    Trick was to delete one, wait 10 seconds and go again.
