    WARNING

    This file contains an XSS prevention module I wrote myself.  It has not
    been verified by any external agency, and due to the nature of XSS I cannot
    guarantee that it will filter correctly.  Feel free to send me bug reports
    and I will do my best to fix them, but use at your own risk.
