RE: Bug in MsgPluslive.net voting
Everything should be fixed now (it was already a few hours ago, but i tweaked it some more).

- Voting anything except 1,2,3,4 or 5 should not be possible
- Bug reported to PHP Arena ( http://www.phparena.net/forums/showthread.php?t=3912 )

And as a bonus...
- If somebody has voted, removes his cookie, and then votes again within a few hours, the vote will not be counted. I know it doesn't really stop people from making multiple votes, but it is at least something.
- Same counts for number of downloads... more than 1 downloads in a few hours from the same IP will be counted as only 1 download.

I agree it's easy to get by, but I still added this extra "security", it's at least something :). Because I already saw somebody trying to get his script high in top ratings this way right after I reset votes :(.
