Hello,
I'm running Snitz version 3.4.05 and have been for I guess a year and a half. We've not had any problems and since then I've added some minor mods here and there with no adverse effects. Within the last two weeks I've gone heavy on adding mods implementing about five new ones with significant coding. Luckily I've not had any major problems and any minor stuff was fixed by a quick search here solving it right away.
Today though someone was able to post on our forum under a registered users name a bunch of drug adds but not have any of the registered users signature info normally on the post. It lead me to doing some research and found we're not up on the latest version.
I've read through all of the topics and downloaded both the full upgrade and up version from 05 to 06. Since I've added all of these mods my option is to hand code the changes. I just want to make sure I'm correct in that there is no simple outline of the changed code for each upgraded asp file. I've looked at both the readme's for the downloads and they are extactly alike. Am I to understand that I would have to go side by side for each asp file and determine which code has been changed and correctly do the same on my files?
Is there a listing I'm missing of the changed code outlined in red somewhere detailing this? Snitz forums are great and this site is even better. I visit it almost everyday now and learn something new.
Thanks for the help and for taking the time to read this.

| Well I started to compare through a semi automatic process and the amount of changes overflowed the text buffer so your probably better off upgrading and re-adding the mods.< |

If you really wanted the list of changes, you could get a program like WinMerge or use the trial version of Beyond Compare. The former is free and will do what you want and more. The latter is not free, but will do even more than the former... until the WinMerge folks catch up. 
Usually though its easier to take the updated files and re-apply the MODs to those files. You did document all your changes, right?  < |

Oh, I really would start a new topic on your spam issue as it would be worth investigating to see if its something related to a MOD (which upgrading won't solve - but you should upgrade anyway), or if its related to your configuration (like not validating e-mails), or if its a problem that was just in 3.4.05, or if its something that still exists in 3.4.06.
Please give us as much information as you can - server OS and which version of IIS, what MODs you've installed, exactly what happened, etc.< |

Thanks for the advise. I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet, I might try both, I like a problem solving but I suppose your're right it's simpler to re-install the mods.
I've got them documented so that's no problem I followed the Mod Install guide NorwegianViking put out. Everything is numbered and set although I think I did one better and copied both the test and live files then also put the live files and modded those. If they worked in the test, which they should since they were the last copied, they would work it the live for sure.
Thanks,
War

| You should save the settings of your current config.asp (strDbType, strConnString, at least) and use them in the new config.asp, but yes, that woyld be basically it.< |

And be sure to apply all the bug fixes found in the security announcements and bug report forums, in particular the recent fix for active.asp.
