Okay Im using the old version 2.3 so to upgrade I just upload the the newest version check Allow Overwrite and thats it? It will be where the other version was and everything will be cool? Will this work on vb 3.8 or is this only for 4.0?

Valter: Any word on the option of removing the ability for people to choose colors in the shoutbox *completely*? I've added color to the "ban list", but I was still getting the dropdown menu (which I want to go away)?

Thanks!

You can confirm this works, for you.

Fact is I have the same IE bug another poster pointed out that I didn't have prior to the update.
