Just wanted to see if someone is promoting phishing or malware links in his profile info, can mods do something about that (disabling links on profile info page or something similar or disabling it alltogether)?
Since links on individual profiles are there or serve a purpose for each member, disabling them for all is going to affect most people in a negative way, especially those who have genuine businesses to which they add links on their profiles.
If you notice someone doing that, I think the best thing to do is to bring that particular person to public notice so moderators can look into it and take action, as their punishment won’t be any different from those who post it directly to the forum.
I didn't imply that links should be disabled for all users, just to disable profile info if some user spreads malicious links over his profile information page.

When a user is nuked, their profile is emptied. Otherwise, admins can deal with it. Just report 'em.
There is one user that has malicious links on his profile info:
