Hey,
I have vb 3.8.6 on one of my sites and it has been hacked and my hosting is constantly closing it because spam is being sent from the account.
I have a custom design which cost around $2k so upgrading isn't a viable option, aside from the spam, I'm very happy with the version.
I don't understand why security updates aren't available free, it isn't my fault if there is a problem with the code / security on something I bought...
I'm not looking for a free update for the script, simply to have a secure site, I don't think anyone should have to pay for an upgrade for a problem that was in the code..
My site is down for about the 15th time now at least, I changed hosts a few times but this is obviously a security problem in vB.
Can someone tell me what I can do please?
The site designer ( Sheldon from vbSkinz ) doesn't work with vB anymore and I dont want to spend another few thousand to get a design done again.. I paid him for the vb design and another designer for a custom logo which I dont have the PSD etc. files for.
Thanks
