Thanks Mobile Hacks for posting this as I was looking for something along these lines to help out other Admins who have stuff to post they have upped but sometimes don't have the time. Anyway I installed the product as instructed but when I try to login as another Admin I get this message
'Your submission could not be processed because a security token was missing.

If this occurred unexpectedly, please inform the administrator and describe the action you performed before you received this error.'

I did do the options in vBulletin Options and I keep checking the user access masks to see if anything is missing but all seems fine. Please could you help me to sort this out ( I am running 3.8.1 ) it's probably something simple that's right under my nose :D but I've only been using vb for a week so I'm a bit green. My user id is 1 and am supposed to be Super Admin so I can't work out where I am going wrong? any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think there might be security problems with this still, i had my forum hacked, and some of my other members too. But I have no idea if it was this mod or what it was, but anyways it seems that since it deals with login that it would be this but also possibly not, I have many mods.
