Web Wiz Forums version 9.63 has been released which fixes a number of security vulnerabilities as well as adding extra security hardening to the forum and online Admin Control Panel. It is advised that all users upgrade to this new release.

Changes have also been made to sessions to cut down on the amount of data stored while at the same time improving performance, as a result forum sessions are now stored in the database by default. By storing the sessions in the database they are less likely to be dropped allowing a better experience for forum visitors.

All changes are listed in the release notes located at; http://www.webwiz.net/webwizforums/kb/release_notes.asp" rel="nofollow - http://www.webwiz.net/webwizforums/kb/release_notes.asp
