On the possible mod_security issue it is not necessary to turn mod_security off completely. It is a matter of identifying the specific pattern that is causing the issue and removing or changing that. The useful thing about turning it off completely however, is simply to discover if that this the where the root of the problem lay.
On the members list issue and the somewhat over-zealous use of notices in php 5 - then this is not caused by hundreds of users all running the members list but a single members list request throwing the notice for each member record it processes. I see that Steve as hit that one on the head during my night so 5.2.1 will put a stop to those.
I am not sure what code you put in place to 'selectively show users groups' but are you aware that we did put support for something along these lines into 5.2 which may perhaps be allowing for the same thing?

Well, this is proving to be difficult as the issue of SP Admin sub-tabs not loading appears to be intermittent today. I'll need to investigate this further whenever it presents itself.
...a single members list request throwing the notice for each member record it processes... 5.2.1 will put a stop to those.
Oh good. With nearly 5000 members this could explain how we accumulated millions of entries in the error log over the years. Earlier in this thread, Steve mentioned investigating why our table row wasn't auto-truncating to the most recent 50 errors, so hopefully that functionality can be confirmed in 5.2.1 also. I'm monitoring my log to see if it exceeds 50 now, currently at 43...

No, I was not aware of any new options to control viewing of the Members list. And I can't seem to find it after reviewing the Options, User Groups, and Permissions admin panes. Was this support added to the Admin settings, or a template function?
Here is the code Steve provided which we're using to only show certain user groups to all on the Members List while showing all groups to Admins and Moderators. If the new support addresses this need, please advise where I'll find those settings.
Thanks again for all the help! Looking forward to 5.2.1...

yes, the error log reduction to only last 50 entries is corrected in 5.2.1...
No, I dont think the membership changes Andy referred to will do what the code I gave you did... you have some pretty unique requirements for what and how you wanted to show... all the changes were under the hoods and cleaned up and improved the use of the existing arguments to the class... but will wait for Andy to confirm...
