We had our first hijack. Someone put "uneployed and want to kill myself" under a profile. -I hope it was a hijack. Any ideas when the fix is coming?

First, delete the hijacked Classmate name and re-enter. Most hijackers give up pretty quickly when they realize their "work" goes away right away every time they do anything.

Dave Kauffman is working on the new Preferences area now, but it's hard to give an ETA because there are numerous new features all lumped together under the Preferences area. Some of them take considerable programming time. What I can say is this is in the works now, it's Dave's top priority, and as soon as it's complete we'll be sending an announcement email system wide to let everyone know it's available.
