vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Remove vBulletin Message Board Name and Logo from Wappalyzer

Hello Guys,

I want to remove or stop browser plugins like Wappalyzer or other similar browser plugins for Mozilla, Opera, Chrome, Safari; to automatically detect the script used for the vBulletin Message Board site. With browser plugins like Wappalyzer, users, individuals and intruders can easily know how to detect what type of Website Script used without even having access or going through the source files.

See attached photo - areas marked with red box:

Does anyone know how to remove or stop this from displaying in the right hand corner of URL Address bar or any similar positions for each type of browser. I know this has to do with, maybe editing the vBulletin source file, but I do not know where exactly.

Please advise.
