Hello,

I was quickly reading through the documentation on Pretty Urls (http://docs.couchcms.com/concepts/pretty-urls.html)

Without thinking, I was just copy/pasting things that were on that page, including this link into my browser (assuming it was localhost without looking):
http://www.yoursite.com/couch/gen_htaccess.php

This brought up some scary looking stuff! I wish I took a screenshot but I closed my browser and cleared all cookies and what not as soon as I saw the suspicious page. I cannot reproduce the fake virusy looking page anymore for some reason, but I would like to suggest changing all references of www.yoursite.com to something that either is not a valid url or to localhost. For example, changing the articles to include this is safer:

http://<www.yoursite.com>/couch/gen_htaccess.php

This is not a critical issue, but could freak others out who are not paying close attention like I was.
Point taken. Thanks.
