Hello all,

My AGB is up and running and I checked what directories are protected.
I found that the misc-directory is not secured. Wich looks dangerous to me because there are two important files in there!
And I deleted the install.php from the root. Everyone could run this.... and destroy the GB?

Are there other security-things I should check?

Happy writings!

LastI checked the install file requires you to input your database information before it wil run. I am sure the update file and password reset file also have a security feature.

Just to be sure: I deleted the install.php file, and secured the misc directory. One never knows....
