Invision Power Board 2.1.7 Invision Power Board 2.1.7 is a maintenance release which consolidates the recent security updates and adds an 'anti-virus' scanner. This is available from the new 'Security Center' (found under the admin tab). This will check your IPB installation for any suspicious and potentially malicious files that could have been uploaded using a previous exploit or via an exploit in a previous version of PHP that allowed one to upload malicious files via the dl() functions. Invision Power Board 2.1.7 is the latest in our series of releases designed to further enhance the security of our software. UPGRADING Invision Power Board comes with full upgrading instructions. To upgrade from a version previous to IPB 2.1.6, please upload all the files (except the install folder and contents) and then run the upgrade system available from www.domain.com/upgrade/ (substituting www.domain.com for your board's URL). An IP.Board 2.1.6 to IP.Board 2.1.7 upgrade pack is available. See the download section for more information. This upgrade pack also includes every single update since the release of 2.1.6.
