Okay, sorry to be a can of questions this week but trying to get this figured out. I have used Fantastico before and whenever there was an upgraded version to a script that was installed through fantastico I would find the upgrade in my cPanel. Until now, I just installed "phpAdsNew" on my site using the Fantastico interface, now as soon as it was installed I log in and receive this message:

It is highly recommended to install this update as soon as possible, because it contains a number of security fixes. The version of phpAdsNew which you are currently using might be vulnerable to certain attacks and is probably not secure. For more information about upgrading please read the documentation which is included in the files below.
You are currently using phpAdsNew 2.0

It tells me that this version is available:
Quote:
phpAdsNew 2.0.4-pr2
This release mainly fixes some recently discovered vulnerabilities (XSS and full path disclosures). All users are advised to upgrade as soon as possible!

A similar incident happened with my coppermine album on another site a couple of weeks ago and again there was no update in fantastico, I had a few problems updating this manually and really liked the fantastico way of updating (didn't screw things up- unlike me!)
So is the upgrading feature no longer available in cpanel or is it disabled, and why would I not get the most recent version on a new install to begin with?
Any help, would be sweet,
Thanks all,
lady M
