:imho: vb for me, that's impossible you said and it's the latest?
your friend might have trojan or keylogger installed on his/her computer, let him check his computer for malware and trojan

NO way
he knows who hacked it and its from VB as a software

Well I use smf right now. no problems yet that i can speak of. Have never used VB before.

rcep 05-07-2008 03:03 PM

thats the point :S
free usually not as good as vb
i never heard of an smf getting hacked
but still not 100% sure its as secure as vb

Jakey 05-07-2008 03:05 PM

I'd still say VB :S

vB is the best by far. And I doubt he's getting hacked through vB - I'd guarantee it's a vulnerability on the server, or someone has somehow got his password.

sure thing. Or have him check the plugins, they often cause a bigger vulnerability issue than anything else on the forum.
