I just noticed the home page of my user profile changed to eUKhost.com. Also noticed everyone elses has changed - nearly had a heart attack because I thought someone had managed to log into my account and change it!!

I guess recent updates the forum might have caused this to occur?

lol. thats not any sort of conspiracy.

There have been many new member registration recently and most of those have put links to adult website hostings in their signature and homepage link section. I was finding it difficult to replace those from admin section and there was no way to drop homepage link section so I simply replaced links for homepage for all members.

I'll see if there's any option to disable homepage link in members profile section as that option will prevent people from registering on the forum just to get a backlink.

Oh right I understand now - I would do the same - with a forum with a couple of thousand of members its a bit hard to vet every single home page address. I assume a lot of these are the "0" post wonders you can see in the member list?
