  1. Re:Never ever use PHPNuke on Taking the Sting Out of PHP 5 Programming · · Score: 1

    Sorry, I didn't knew that PHP Nuke had such serious vulnarabilities.
    I only know that some friends of mine use it for their MMORPG-Guildsite, I'll ask them if they have their PHP Nuke patched.

    But it seems like you can get Patches on this site.
    And there are other Content Managment Systems out there, too.
    Try searching Sourceforge for "CMS" and you'll find many open source systems, not only PHP based (Perl is nice, too...)
    Or use a google to search for free CMS...

  2. Using a Framework for YOUR applications!? on Taking the Sting Out of PHP 5 Programming · · Score: 1

    If you simply want a site with some 0815 stuff (like a Guestbook, News, Articles, Photogallerie) use PHP-Nuke and try to create you're own template (or ask a friend to do it for free).

    If you want to create anything else (like a corporate site with support system [ticketbased], shop [enduser and reseller], productinfo,... or a browserbased) do it yourself or have a company done it ;-)

    And if you really want to stick to a framework - create your own framework :D


    Sebastian (using his very own framework AdvFW2 v0.3.9 since 2 years [but it's php4-based because I use it for projects I do for friends for free])

  3. My Story (and some Advice) on Is Obsolescence Good Computer Security? · · Score: 1

    Because our DSL-Router (Windows XP pro with Kerio Winroute 5) had a serious error I was forced to go online by 56k-ISDN Dial-Up with my own Windows XP pro Computer.
    My system wasn't Up-To-Date (maybe 2 or 3 weeks without Windows Update) and I had no Firewall installed. About 2 Minutes after I dialed up my Computer shut itself down (I turned on Windows XP Firewall and downloaded a Firewall I really trusted).
    As you can see: The up/downstream is not very important ;)
    It's more important to have a nice Firewall (I use Kerio Personal Firewall which is Free, but the AdBlocker and some other additional stuff will be disabled after 30 days of testing, but the Firewall still works and can be configured...) and good Antivirus (like AntiVir PE Classic which is free for personal use, too).
    And since you're online with DSL you can turn auto-update for both programs on.
    And of course Windowsupdate, if you want to (I only use Service Packs because I trust FireFox 1.5 and my sense for dangerous stuff)

    OK, with Dial-Up you may be more secure because you're not always-on, but thats somewhat foolish. Because if you don't go online at all you're quite safe, too.
