Weird admin issue
#1
My board is cb1300.createmybb4.com

I am the only administrator and I have set the registration to require admin authentication. All is OK until today.

I have had a user register on my board today at 8:49am. When I logged on tonight for the first time today to my board (I have been out all day), I noticed a new registration and went to the admin control panel to do my normal checks before authenticating him.

To my surprise, he’s already a registered user and not ‘awaiting activation’. But I didn’t do it.

How can this happen?

Any thoughts?

Can you recreate it on your own? If you try to signup another account?

Update - the IP address of the user is 72.52.65.187 which appears in Stop Forum Spam 5 times. So, he’s getting deleted.

[That is one of my standard checks - so there is no way I would have authorised him]

OK - I created a new account and yes, I got a message when I logged on as admin that there was an account that needed activation.

I can't explain what happened - I couldn't have logged on as I've been travelling all day.

I will update my admin password - just in case!!!
