 Calling {{{checkdnsrr()}}} makes my computer explode.

 In Safari I get:
 {{{
 Safari can’t open the page "{URL}" because the server unexpectedly dropped
 the
 connection, which sometimes occurs when the server is busy. You might be
 able
 to open the page later.
 }}}

 Firefox does not give me an error, but has me download a 0 byte .php file.

 This behavior changed in [1385/trunk/bb-includes/registration-
 functions.php].  The "bug" was a feature as it turned out :)

 Let's disable that check by default.
