IMPORTANT READ THIS: Forum Upgrade to fix security holes!

#1 Post by Guest » Mon Dec 13, 2004 9:57 pm

Due to serious security holes in phpBB versions prior to 2.0.11 (we were running 2.0.8), I had to take the forum down and install the new version.

As part of the security as soon as you can please go and change your password!

Once installed I had to work out a bug when viewing a topic.
I fixed it and the forum is now available.
Things should be fine but if you find any problems please email me via the board so I can look at it.

If you want more info about the security problem you can look here:

I do not think our little forum was hacked but you never know.
That's one reason why you need to change your password.

Thanks!

Bob
