Is my vBulletin safe?

[JMEWLS`]

Apparently it's not. According to someone. Can someone point out where I'm wrong.

Your invisible vBulletin forum looks fine!
Seriously, how do you expect us to check if you provide no name, link, information, or anything?

And what do people say when they tell you, "they reakon it isn't"?

Also apparently i didn't uninstall a modification correctly? I don't know which one it was.

With modifications installed on vB its never safe! :p

Check out the sticky thread "How to make your forums more secure" if your concerned about it

You want a nearly 100% safe vBulletin? Uninstall all modifications and remove all of its files. Done :)

Seriously though, reading that thread would be a good start.

Here are a few tips, because removing addon's is very annoying and it shouldn't need to be done.


Rename your admincp directory, and change the location of it in your config.php
Password protect your new admin directory with cPanel Folder Password Protection
Do the same with your ModCP.
You may also restrict IP addresses to your admincp or whatever, if they have static IP's


Just some tips, read that thread for more.
