Yep. He lives in Vermont.

If Daveo could look at the source code (and he would have had to be very handy with vbulletin to know where to look in the hundreds of pages of code) he would have had more than admincp access. You have to have server access to see the source php.

You don't need admincp access to view the source code of a website - you just right click and select source code.

Didn't wbl hack your forum?

You are aware that there is enough controversy right now without silly conspiracy theories involving mods and abusing the power they use to protect the forum?

(btw, to see the password logging hack, I'm pretty sure that Daveo would need adminCP; it is meant to be rather secret, y'know.)

That provides the html, css, ect. Not the code that would be logging the password.

Silly conspiracy theories? All just facts or well-substantiated opinions (I think), no conclusions drawn...

It was the way that the html etc was logging the passwords that tipped us off to the password logging - nothing to do with the php stuff. It wasn't simply returning them to the server - it was saving them as a seperate field and then returning that field to the server to allow the users to log in - which someone would only bether doing if they'd modified the server to accept unencrypted versions of those fields and save them.
(note - this is my un-techy understanding of what went on...but it was all based on readily accessibly html source code from the login page, admincp access/server access didn't come into it)
