Two questions ...

(2) Can  Admin see PM traffic ?

Thanks ...

The odd thing is ...a site I seldom frequent ... and this has happened a couple times ...
I arrive at the site , clearly haven't logged in ...but my user name is visable on the boards .  With in a minute mine is gone and the Admin's name has replaced it ...I'm not the only one on that Forum it has happened to?

of course.
be aware that passwords are encrypted and they cannot read them ... if that eases your mind
