hack of the simple PHPNuke-securicty improves the system
Add Onsnukeevangelist writes "read this article [click]

It was a known fact that PHPNUKE is using a simple form of CAPTCHA (called security code), which will try to resist against automated actions - login bruteforce, account creation DoS, ect. PHNUKE with the standard 6-digit CAPTCHA can be easily attacked not only by human, but also by any malicious script exploiting the design weakness.

This is a guide for you to change your captcha from 6 digits to 8. Be sure to make backup of your original copies of the files. Something might gone wrong at anytime, so you can revert to your original files.

It is a good move to use not-a-standard-phpnuke-captcha. However for a newbie, it is not an easy task. Changing a few line of codings in a few file might drowned him several couple of hours in front of his computer.
This guide will show you in a very simple way how to change the PHPNUKE captcha from 6 to 8 digits.
