I hadn't visited the site before your post but .... Holy Smokes! I can 
access it too.

For everyone else, in case you have not seen it , if you enter your 
name, email address and shipping address on that website, that info will 
thereafter be available to ANY other visitors to the site.

James, if you notified them and they still haven't fixed it, they might 
not even understand what they've done.  Honestly, this is one of the 
most flagrant violations of computer security I've ever seen.  It's the 
kind of error a middle schooler might make on his or her first or second 
take-home programming assignment.

No one else on VV should shop or buy from that website until they get 
these issues remedied.  And maybe not even after that.  These guys have 
no clue.

Steven "'appalled' is exactly the right word" Serenska

P.S. For Ron H. by "drop down boxes", James means input controls 
formally called "comboboxes".  These are controls in which the user 
clicks a downward pointing arrow to the right of an input area in order 
to reveal a list of selections that can be chosen from.  (The list 
"drops down".)  Here are more pictures of them than you can shake a 
stick at:
