HTML and Scripting Upgrade your phpbb install to 2.0.11

Hi all,

In case you use the most popular free forum software out there phpbb, I'd strongly advise you to upgrade your site to 2.0.11 (if you haven't already done so).

A virus has been infecting install all throughout the next since last night. Here's the news story:

This affects all versions before 2.0.11 so upgrade now!

 

Thanks a lot! One of my hostees is using phpBB and I upgraded his installation right away. (I did the day you posted it but forgot to post here XD!)

 

Thanks for the warning Slydice, and the update Sebastien. It would suck to have the message board go down now considering that people have been posting on it recently.

Now I need to figure out a way to keep people from joining for the sole purpose of putting the link to their pr0n site in their profiles - it's likely that it's a bot doing this.
