As a security precaution, all accounts on this forum for people who have not made any posts have been deleted.

Such accounts are typically (but not always, of course!) made by spammers as "sleeper" accounts which are then used at a later date to introduce spam by modification of the user's signature or home page.

I apologize for any inconvenience to legitimate users, please re-create your account if you were planning to post a question.
