Thanks alexboom, I'll probably update to 2.0.8 fairly soon. :)

Andrew, I suggest that updating the forum to 2.0.10 version should be one of your top priorities on the site, due to security reason. I wouldn't like that you do it in emergency because of an attack. I know you've been busy lately, but if you can do the update when you have spare time that will be great for everyone here (and also that great mod that allows to disable sigs :wink: ) I think that shouldn't take a long time to do so

2.0.10 has just been released and yeah, I would update it for security reasons. It's not going to make a huge difference but it will help out a bit.

Forgot all about this. :oops: At the moment it's not exactly convenient for me to upgrade, but I'll do so ASAP.
