Thank you - I dont use phpBB but it's great to have people like you on the boards to keep us informed. Added to reputation

yep, getting tired of these monthly updates. It's definitely hard on boards that have a lot of mods. Thanks for the heads up.

Well you can always buy a professional forum .. if you can aford it

Anyone using and older version of phpBB should really upgrade right now! I've seen several phpBB boards get hacked lately -- this is probably one of the most critical upgrades ever for phpBB.

Yeah they had an important bb code fix that they posted in the announcement on their forum but it is always best to upgrade as soon as you can.
