For those that use Apache servers, there is an important security fix for some of the servers. Anyone can gain access to members passwords by going to http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/blah/Members/Admin.pl

An easy fix around this is to uplose .htaccess (attached) to all the folders within the blah folder (DO NOT UPLOAD TO /Blah -- where Blah.pl is located, that will disable the script.

).
