But that can't hurt your system, only possibly some drive by. If you enabled a forum that had to have Admin approval to post you could also prevent that. Then they could post, you view it, then allow or don't allow. Where's the harm?


Someone could insert malicious JavaScript to install malware or capture cookies upon viewing the topic. There are far too many security risks with it enabled to list them all.
