I was looking through some of the code Bruce wrote, and I noticed he does do some extensive checking on uploads to make sure they are not malicious.  I don't know how fool proof it is, but from what I saw, it appears to block the most common things someone would try to enter to mess up your forums.

Anyone have experience with this issue?
