How about NOT using software coded by people without _any_ sense for
security as a fix? Seriously, this "bug" is intolerable, even for
"beta" software. Who ever the authors, they should never have been put
in front of a developer environment..

What's this new wave of idiocy and point-and-click mentality. All of
the sudden everyone is a coder?

This shows that they have no knowledge of security whatsoever, and
THAT is not the kind of people you want writing software to handle
credit card information and/or other sensitive data.

Am I the only one being stumped here?
