Smugmug is not as secure as we think it is.

I found this:

http://www.teknobites.com/2008/01/28/batch-download-photos-from-smugmug-and-others/

"There is a security hole in SmugMug, discovered by Google Blogoscoped which allows you to view or even download private albums. SmugMug users can protect photos from public view by selecting private option, one would expect these won’t be viewable by public. But that is not the case, any one can view these photos by just guessing the URL of the photos. Of course one can password protect but that is a different issue. Read the discussion at Google Blogoscoped for more on this."

I'm wondering if this has been fixed?

In a word, yes.

Wow, the thread title had me really scared that we missed something huge.

Check your control panel, for the news tab, link to our CEO's blog, and also the link to the release notes. That's an awesome way to stay current on things.
