Security problemss

Im not sure how, but this person has been trying to find exploits in my forum board for a few days now... I have page after page of his different IP logs (from the proxies he has been using), and he has managed to create accounts with the same names, and he posted saying that he has apparently hacked me... Though i cant really see any evidence of this. If you want to see the duplicate username, then visit here:

See how he has created another user called 'c3f3 Admin', when that is my admins account...

I have just upgraded to MyBB 1.6.3, will that fix the username thing?

I don't think upgrading to 1.6.3 fixes that. I believe it's some kind of unicode being used somewhere - while it looks the same, coding wise it isn't.

MyBB tries to strip out the common ones but it's impossible to do every single one.

Unless he's doing something malicious, poking around the server or getting into the ACP - I wouldn't worry about it. They'll get bored eventually. Keep banning them and maybe look into denying proxies.
Ok, thanks Tomm. Hopefully they will get bored soon...
