This mod is for vBulletin 4.1.x - 4.2.x
This mod will allow you to specify users that will get stopped if the config.php file is modified.
This is useful as a security tool, as most hackers would go for the config.php file.
You must enable it in it's settings before it will work.
Why Would I want/need this?
The config.php file contains the variables for super admins, as well as those with log pruning/viewing/sql executing permissions. If someone has ftp to your site, they will target this file so they can do whatever they want. Want to risk it? Install now!
Please note: This may cause a slight delay loading the page for people you choose to notify, as it calculates the md5 hash of the config.php file. It shouldn't be too much of an issue though.
