    Reminder to Update phpBB

    <div style="color: #000080; padding: 2px;">Reminder to Update phpBB</div><div style="font-size: .9em; margin-bottom: 12px; border-bottom: 1px solid #000080; padding: 2px; border-top: 1px solid #000080;">Wednesday, December 22, 2004 by ManagerJosh</div><div style="font-size: 1em;">This is a general reminder for all sites to UPGRADE to the latest version of phpBB, assuming you are running it. There is a new computer worm that is targetting servers running phpBB and has been slowly attacking various Bulletin Board Services around the internet.

    Bulletin boards that are infected will show a simple text message: "This site is defaced!!! This site is defaced!!! NeverEverNoSanity."

    Please upgrade to the latest version immediately. If you need assistance in upgrading phpBB, please file a support ticket immediately.

    For more details on this virus/worm, please visit this MSNBC page.

    Alternatively, I would recommend upgrading all together to a more secure platform like vBulletin.</div>
