Try replying to this post by typing what's in the title on a single line by itself, replacing hatch, exclamation and slash with the appropriate symbols (and no spaces). Do you get a 404 error?

Or in other words,
#!\bin\bash
with the slashes changed to forward slashes.

Apparently the php code that parses the posting here is getting confused when it encounters that code in the text... that code is normally a way to run a linux bash script. A bug in the forums? A possible security exploit waiting to happen?
