Hey folks,

        I'm with Eloqua and their CSO. I am more than happy to answer anything here. We are addressing this with the 
customer and ensuring they can't "stab" themselves in the foot again. We have or are making changes to our look-up to 
prevent this in the future.

next pages:

    * The fields auto populated with details like Name, Phone Number etc
(i know, without auth and only an email address . worriedface)
    * Another tab became available that allowed you to update your details
. again, no auth, scary

So i whipped out the good old firebug and started looking through the ajax
calls till i came across this little gem:
