HUH??? Alert their users that they we're about to be hacked? Does that even make any sense?

And apparently this an an attempt to get money. It's a pretty common ploy in the hacker community,...

OK, I'm confused. I spent a while looking at this, and couldn't get it to work.

I have a 3.0.6 "Patched" forum. I have a "Staff Room" forum. This forum is in a category...

I have used and still use VBPortal for a long time. I did try VBAdvance when I first started looking into upgrading to VB 3. But didn't like the feel of it as much. Of course I did almost go with it just...

This started showing up on my site as well... Doesn't do any harm. I've followed them and just got an error message. But just in case I put in the .htaccess control on

So I can just upload the Admin directory from 2.3.5, run the upgrade php, and then delete or leave in place the Admin directory and then install and upgrade to 3.0.3?

Steve - I want to be able to do this with the least amount of junk in my system. What besides the upgrade22.php file do I need to do the DB upgrade? Thanks!

Now that sounds like a politican... Anyways. I have been forced to move hosts for my site, and I have a bad taste in my mouth for hosting companies, so I decided to self host. I have just built the server,...

Because I have recently changed jobs and now work for a company that is shall we say "heavy" MS, I get a free MSDN subscription and therefore have full access to all MS Business software. (HEY...

The reason I haven't updated is because I have a lot of custom hacks installed.... so as of now that's not an option for me. I'm also moving TODAY from Calif to Colorado, so I don't have a lot of time....

This F nugget has been busy I see. I have banned all the domains from my system, and the others I admin on. And I have been sending e-mails to all ISP's, and any providers (such as the dollarmachine guys)....

What is Araxis Merge and Beyond Compare? Never heard of them, but... I'm interested! Thanks!!...

[BigCheeze]

DOH!! That is exactly what I thought....

I think I'll wait for 3.0 to come out before going through all that again!

Thanks NTLDR!!...

Steve -

If I have custom hacks installed, how will it affect the upgrade? Will I lose them, and have to reinstall? Thanks!!

Thanks Steve!!

Sorry for posting here.. but I can't seem to get into Vbulletin.org.

I can't login under my account, and it won't let me reset my password. Keeps taking me to the Password Recovery Form,...

[BigCheeze]

By doing so, will this allow users behind Proxy servers to visit the site properly?

I really want to install this update, but I'm worried that at least a good % of my possible users will...
