Are you using it yourself? How do you find it?
I'd be a bit worried about an app that was developed as part of a university course... EIGHT years ago.

I'm working on it, in my vast amounts of spare time.

I actually have just been having a quick read up on SQL injection attacks, and hadn't realised the existence of parameterised statements, which are a so much more reliable approach than simply escaping characters. Of course, it really needs a multi-layered approach, so I may escape the strings as well! (paranoia is good with such things).
