I get the impression the software upgrade did not go as well as planned

Maybe it's just my local mirror, but the board keeps popping offline.
I use the same forum software for one of my companies, XenForo emails critical updates to repair known bugs and enhance security usually every couple months, even though we use SiteLock to ward off hackers. We installed the latest updates a few days ago on our forum...users get the 404 error message during the updates. This software sure beats the hell out of vBulletin, which hackers have a field day with day in and day out.

I figured that was it. It seems to be working now. I don't have your experience with it, and I don't even resemble a hacker, but it does usually seem to be pretty robust software.

You realize XenForo is made up mainly of the original vBulletin guys right? It's the only reason we use it over IPS. Kier Darby, Mike Sullivan, Chris Deeming and a few others all came from vBulletin.
