I have a few questions for you vBulletin users out there before I buy it later tonight.

1. How secure is the admin CP? I had a friend on an older version of vBulletin that he had bought get hacked into and deadmined and got his entire board screwed up.

2. How easy are hacks to install? I have had experence with phpBB hacks....

3. How long does it take till I will be able to access the hacks avalible for download?

Thanks for your time!!!!

1. It's very secure. Also whenever a security hole is found, the fix is out very fast.
Normally such couldn't happen, but it's always a good advice to .htaccess your adminfolder, too

2. Depends on the hack. Most of them are very very easy to install without any php knowledge

3. When you got acces to vb.com's member area you can enter your username to a form, and after that you can download hacks.
No waiting time if you do everything correct

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
