I'll be slapping this into a file later and updating the release but I want this out there now as it's a big problem I hadn't caught until someone exploited it.

Open the file: /includes/pages/register.php

change the line that read $name = $_POST['name']; to read $name = htmlentities(strip_tags($_POST['name'])); Replace every (there are several) occurrence after that of $_POST['name'] to $name. If anyone is having problems, email me at admin[at]babbleboard[dot]co[dot]uk and I will help you through it.

It is recommended you make this change ASAP!
