    Was attempting to delete a file from my members filepage when I got this error.

    It's not the error that concerns me, it's the fact that the users name and, most importantly, the password (the white portions of the url in the link) are both shown unencrypted in that link.

    It mightn't seem like much to most people here, but just letting you know.


    Note: I edited out the username and password from the picture. Obviously.

    Yep thats happened to me loads of times well before the vb upgrade. Its no big deal. Just go back a page and retry. Usually works.

    You could always change your password on a regular basis if you are worried about security - as any security concious person would do :D

    Yeah, I retryed and it worked grand for me the second time. As for changing my password regularly, pfft! I'm a stubborn unimaginative young Turk, just look at my username! :p

    Sorry, it's late here and I'm tired, heh. :-)

    EDIT: And I was unaware that it to do with the upgrade (however slightly) either.
