Is a robot able to fill out a form and register itself with a name and a password so it is able to post something? That would be scary. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />
Actually Mary, it doesn't "fill out the form". Rather it communicates directly with the page that has the programming for the form. Since this forum software is widely popular, it's easy for people to write programs that seek out these sites and communicate with the software that's actually running the site.
