Strictly speaking, older software will always be less secure than newer versions of any software. In this case, however, vB4 and vB5 forums seem to be especially being targeted in recent months. This doesn't necessarily mean that they're less secure. It just means that hackers are currently less interested in vB3 forums. Of course, this could change.
Check the demo, read the reviews. Weigh what it is you want from the software vs what it is it looks like it can actually deliver and decide based on that. You'll get nothing but mixed reviews if you ask directly on any of these boards, as, naturally, you're on a vB board, so you're going to get positive responses about vB, and then you've got the haters who've only stuck around to deter people from ever buying the software again ever. And, of course, the people who fall in between there somewhere. So far you've only gotten the replies from the folks, like me, in between. I think it falls short on some things, but in other places it seems to work fairly well. So I'm cautious as to what I recommend, as what I find satisfactory may not be what you're looking for.
