Whomever maintains this site, can you please spend some time and correct the user login for the forums so that the passwords are sent encrypted. Currently they are WIDE open for anyone to snag as the packets go by.

TYVM!

i know... it is so hard to add a "s" to https:\\url

and also... last time i checked it was illegal to use packet sniffers on networks you didn't own.

but hey... simple fix, only problem is the images and the php sends too much unencrypted info so the site isn't 100% secure even w/ https
