I just found that in the current released version 7.9 admins and mods can edit the main admins password by editing their registration. Thats not a good thing security wise, or is there a reason for that been like that, i blocked that on my site and i think you should block that on v8 thats coming soon!! (Hopefully Big smile)

i have just tested this and it was ok.

-boRg- in my applications i have set it so no one can delete/edit etc the admin account (1)

Author_ID/User_ID 1.

that way otyher users can't restrict access as the default account can only be edited by the admin user (1)
