In Topic: osCommerce unwanted at hosting domeneshop.no

A good host would tell you what to do to remain secure, not tell you to bounce from software to software.

In Topic: 2.2 RC vs 2.3 or 3.0?

Thanks. I took a look at the install guide & those labeled SEC I already covered those in custom code or contributions.

Looks like smooth sailing until future versions of php break it, or new security patches are released. :)

I wonder how many of us will stick with their 2.2 cart once 3.0 is released?

If that is your hosts response for security, find a new host. *EVERY* open source cart is going to experience hacks. The more popular the software, the more prone to hacks it will be.
If the cart owner doesn't take the time to patch security holes or remain up to date, the onus is on the cart owner.

because versions are never updated
If it aint broke, don't fix it. ;) The problem isn't oscommerce, it's the site owners and hosts for pushing these stupid ideas into peoples' head.
What will your hosts response be when your next cart is compromised?

Good news, thanks DunWeb. :)

and it is secured
this is my primary concern; did 2.3 see the release of any security patches that weren't covered in 2.2 or the release candidate versions? The info available without the announcements forum is sloppy, at best.
