OpenX Security Update
Security is an important priority at OpenX and we’re constantly working to provide security patches and bug fixes as soon as we become aware of any potential issue. As these issues are discovered, we validate, patch and release as quickly as we can. But it’s important to understand that avoiding potential security issues also requires server administrators to be vigilant and upgrade their systems to new, patched versions as soon as they become available.
It has been brought to our attention that there is a vulnerability in the 2.8 downloadable version of OpenX that can result in a server running the downloaded version of OpenX being compromised. We have already closed this vulnerability with the latest version of our software. To avoid this issue, we recommend that all users immediately upgrade their systems to 2.8.7
OpenX also provides both free and Enterprise hosted versions of the ad server. Both of these products are managed and operated by the OpenX team, including upgrades, maintenance, and security scans, freeing you and your team from handling such issues. If ad serving is mission-critical to your business, we suggest contacting our team to learn more about your OpenX needs.
For any custom help, you can contact info@openxservices.com .
OpenXservices.com can help you out to get the security issue fixes and it is tested perfectly and also installed.

Question:
it was not suppose to happen that all banners ar shoot just in 1 day.
Is there a way to find exactly why this happen, so I can tell it to the client “witout no doubt”
Also, is there a way to fix this for GOOD – so this banners ar never over shoot any more.
Answer:
I have checked that campaign and all linked zones and priority and it seems that it has correct settings.
There are number of factors for this problem like, wrong priority, delivery limitation etc. you may have given wrong priority at time of setup so this may occur.
(You should check campaigns and banners for at-least next 2 hours and daily once for 2 days when you setup it first time to stop reoccur of this problem.)
Your second campaign is working fine.
You can purchase this mod which will distribute statistics hourly so all impressions will be distributed given time period.

I have upgrade to the 2.4.7 version and I notice that banner capping is not working
I would like to know if you can help to get the capping working. Capping was working in my 2.0 version of openads. I could give you the user:passwd for the admin to take a peek and if you can help mi fix and explain why this is not working and also tell me how long it will take for this.

Question :
http://www.adservermods.com/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=1322
How exactly is this module working? Based on what? IP, cookie, ?
Answer:
This module is to get rid of fraud clicks, through Openx we can’t categorize the fraud clicks. Openx only calculate the no. of clicks on those particular ads.
But somebody mishandles this facility for to earn more money. They clicks on the add as much as possible. So prevent from the fraud click system adservermods.com has developed this module for to enrich capability of openx.
If you installed this module, the admin/advertiser can set how long times interval the same user can clicks the same add.
Its works based on Ip, cookies and some internal values testing.
