Upload/Security Issue

Just a headsup:
I uploaded a new file for the Syntax LT32HV LCD Television, and noticed that I had forgotten to log in prior to loading the file.

The file section allowed me to upload the file as "guest" without logging in.

Not sure if this is the way you guys/gals want it or not. Kinda figured you'd want to restrict file uploads to registered forum members only,to keep *some* control or tracking over uploaded files.

Anyway, I logged in, then realized that I couldn't edit the file description as "guest" was the original file poster. I logged out, went back as guest, and then was able to delete the file. It's now been re-uploaded by the appropriate poster (me).

Thanks for the heads-up, I have just changed the permissions for the file section to "members only".
