Could the default privacy level for things like Contact Info, Profile Picture, Visitor Messages, Albums, About Me, Friends, Recent Visitors, Permission Groups, be set to registered members only instead of the entire internet. I'm afraid that people who leave their setting on "Everyone" may start getting spam.

I have just gone through and set it up so that only registered users can see you profile. I think that may elevated most of that.

thanks for the quick response

That is something I hadn't thought about, but I'm glad someone else did!

Don't matter that we didn't think of it, if you've registered on llbean.com or bestbuy.com the bad guys got your e-mail address now anyway.
