If they offered a patch, you can simply upload the patch. Otherwise you'll want to upload All the new vBulletin files to your forum.

Making sure to make a backup first ;)

That way if there are any last minutest bugs, they can be fixed.

Is It A Must We Update?

3.6.8 is primarily bug fixes, so it is not a "must" that you need to update -- but it's recommended if you're able to do so.

Template updates are the hard part... modification updates are a breeze.

Just remember the golden rule: backup, backup, and when you're finished backing up -- backup once more! :D
