In my opinion you are running a version that lacks a lot of smart spam protection, improved code and more features.

I would recommend you upgrade to at least ....

You should be able to restore most of your tweaks and customisations.

Beside the features: is it a security problem? Are there some fixes I need to implement?

Hi MarcDK,

There are minor security issues with the 0.9 branch but you are in serious trouble once the spammers find your site. Even we can't help you then.

I advise you to set a target in the near future and start upgrading your site. You can do so on a seperate install and once you're finished, it's D-day and you will do the database upgrade. You will have to choose if you go for the 1.10 mighty stable and well known by the most of us or the stable 2.0.2 where you will find we don't have all the answers to your questions (yet).

You will have to redo your skin and make an inventarisation of all your tweaks. You will find there are a tremendous lot of solutions for funny things available, especially in 1.10.

Good luck

What do you mean with "minor issues"? I don't want to switch and I eleminated the spam problem with the "turing test". No spam since one year with 1,1 Million Hits and 50k visitors every month. So, can I patch these issues?

Reported was an issue with the MT importer and the /install folder in general. You can remove them if you haven't done already.

Good luck

Take a long look at that page.

How many "needs patches" do you see?

Then look at this:

the xml-rpc issue might not be applicable to 0.91, I honestly dont reme, and Im not inclined to look. You can google it and know in minutes though.
