Sorry everyone for the downtime earlier today. We had our security compromised and had to upgrade the forums instantly. Unfortunatly during the upgrade the marketplace was overwritten so we will try and have that fixed for tommorow.

Thanks to Patrick during this time.

Thanks for your patience.

In short terms, there was a security hole in vb 3.06 and this was used by an individual to gain access to my account and information. We managed to patch the board pretty quickly, unfortunatly it took alot longer to change all my passwords, some people shouldn't be allowed online.

It is quite annoying having to upgrade vBulletin so often, especially recently. I don't know how it was back in the version 2 days but I imagine much like this. Its got to be possible to pull up most of the code from pages from a centralised position - where they can be upgraded as required by the designers and edited by the Admin from a Site Admin Position. Having only Admin and Mod Pages technically on the Server; and Technical Pages and other non-Code resources like Images. But that would make hacks impossible... or practically. I think it would be useful though... with an Enterprise Licence for people to get the Files and run it off their Server for bigger sites or sites that want Hacks.

Very annoying! I wish they could at least make it stable before they release it. I'm not bothered about small bug fixes/extra features for an upgrade. However, when there is a huge security hole that can be exploited then that is annoying!

I have never really had a problem upgrading vbulletin, the only thing I dislike about vbulletin is the hacks they have and how complicating it is to install them. Having to edit all those different files and such gets very tiring...But still, vBulletin is a great piece of software.
