Okay so we all need security right?

Well if you want extra sucurity it helps to remove the vbulletin version,
this way if someone wants to use an exploit on you they won't know the version!

vBulletin version will be removed from the following pages:

Board Index
Admin Login
Mod Login
Archives

Note: This hack is not intended to show you how to remove vbulletin copyright!

First, login to admin control panel.
Under Styles & Templates tab go Style Manager | Select skin and click Edit Templates on dropdown menu | Edit Footer template
Find:

PHP Code:

<div align="center">
    <div class="smallfont" align="center">
    <!-- Do not remove this copyright notice -->
    $vbphrase[powered_by_vbulletin]
    <!-- Do not remove this copyright notice -->
    </div> 


Replace with:

PHP Code:

<div align="center">
    <div class="smallfont" align="center">
    <!-- Do not remove this copyright notice -->
    Powered by vBulletin
<br />
        Copyright ? 2000 - 2006, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
    <!-- Do not remove this copyright notice -->
    </div> 


The version is now removed from the footer.
Now we'll remove it from the admin/mod login.

Edit includes/adminfunctions.php

PHP Code:

<b><a href="../<?php echo $vbulletin->options['forumhome']; ?>.php"><?php echo $vbulletin->options['bbtitle']; ?></a></b><br />
                <?php echo "vBulletin " . $vbulletin->options['templateversion'] . " $pagetitle"; ?><br />

                <?php echo "vBulletin Admin Control Panel"; ?><br />

Open ./forum/archive/index.php file
