MAJOR forum modifications: Security improved
|
Coume

Dear members,
It took around 7hours coding but everything seems to be working now...
Basically, I upgraded several versions of phpBB to have it up-to-date and less vulnerable to badly intentioned hackers. Most of theses changes are transparent to you but definitely worst the time spent :)
2 major changea are against the spammers using this board to advertise their website and steal our Google PR.
- The addition of the rel="nofollow" to every links posted on this board... Basically, even if some spammers get through using a manual registration method etc. they will lose their time by posting here and it will not help them in any way...
- Bots cannot register anymore by hitting the profile.php file... Was tricky but seem to work well :)
There are several other changes but would be too long to go into them!
Please, if you experience any problem with the board can you inform us ASAP through the supportA_TmythtvtalkD0Tcom email address. Make sure to include as much information as you can (how to reproduce, what happened, which browser are you using, etc.)
N.B.: All the German users should reselect the Aeolus-German theme in their profile if they experience any problem.
Regards,
Ludovic
P.S.: The website field in the profile has to be resetted, but you can re-enter your website address by editing your profile. |
