Sorry that probably wasn't clear - I mean that firstly why would someone create malware that uses the forum as a middleman when they've already done the hard part in getting access to the users PC and secondly if someone is creating a two-part attack (malware on computer, links on forum), what's to stop them posting things that don't look like links to the forum software but can still be read by the malware? Is this a problem that has previously existed, given that other sites are happy to display full URLs?
Anyway, I will look out for the 80% tooltips - is there a way you could set it to remove the middle portion of URLs, the parts that humans don't need? IE.
