There for a while, it seemed like once a month there was an exploit and you had to rushrushrush to patch / upgrade.

v3.0 has some nice features that make updating a bit easier (and less likely to lose all your posts.)

Also, look into anti-spam mods- not just captcha for registrations, but also plugins that tie into known spammer email addy / ip addresses like www.stopforumspam.com.
