Proof that Hebert is right is in this email I received today:
Mr. Jones—
Your post regarding a bug on the homepage at http://www.swtor.com/ was brought to my attention the other day, and I wanted to see if I could get some more information about this problem. In truth, this is the only report of the issue happening that I’ve seen and I’d like to determine if there is a specific cause for the problem that may be specific to your setup. Can you provide your browser/OS/Flash version configuration?
For what it’s worth, we’ve recently updated the homepage to scale back on some of the heavier Flash and I’d be surprised if the problem you were encountering is still occurring as of this morning… but I would like to have our Flash dev go back and determine what was going wrong in your case so that we can ensure we’re testing appropriately in the future. As we’re preparing for the launch of a AAA online game, our publishing pipeline and QA routines need to be top-notch… and while we’ve got a good deal of process and safeguards in place, issues like the one you experienced show that we may have a few kinks to work out. Any info you can provide on this issue would be very much appreciated.
Thanks for your help!

I have removed the email address, out of common courtesy, but it is clear proof that Hebert was right about being careful what you put on the Internet. I guess this was in response to my post on January 30th; either somebody reported this or these guys are extremely good at what they do.
This to me is an example of the professionalism which must be adopted in order to better improve our websites. This is proof that you never know who is watching, so be wary what you do online as you never know who is watching.
By the way for those of you who do not know Hebert is the teacher for who's class I started this blog for.
