At the moment, the best way to report these kind of PM scams is to PM myself, deceptikon or ~s.o.s~ with a copy of the message recieved and a link to the member profile of the person sending it. We can then investigate and take the appropriate action, which is …

Your school admin disabled it for a reason, I suggest you don't try and circumvent this ban but instead ask your admin why it was disabled and whether he could allow you to temporarily use the function.

The results from what is claimed to be the most comprehensive global online job trends survey, the 'Fast 50' Q2 2012 report took data from 190,000 online job postings as an indicator of the global online employment economy. Some of the findings are surprising to say the least, such as …

Recently we have all become somewhat over-exposed to the leaking of customer data courtesy of inadequate security allowing hackers to gain access to databases. The [LinkedIn LeakedOut leak](http://www.daniweb.com/internet-marketing/social-media-and-communities/news/425019/linkedin-confirms-six-million-password-hack-check-if-yours-is-one-of-them) and [eHarmony dating data disaster](http://www.daniweb.com/hardware-and-software/microsoft-windows/viruses-spyware-and-other-nasties/news/425118/dating-disaster-eharmony-confirms-passwords-exposed-by-linkedin-hacker#post1817377) are good examples of the genre. However, let's not forget that sometimes no hackers are required to …

Good question. Some tweaking of the 'related article weighting' algorithm required methinks. Equally, this post is giving me a related article suggestion of [Signatures](http://www.daniweb.com/community-center/daniweb-community-feedback/threads/3315/signatures) which doesn't seem that related either. All that said, I've found that more often than not the related artcile suggestions are, indeed, related in some reasonable …
