Default security-patch-2007-10-29.tgz

Most of you should have received an e-mail from Qualiteam this morning about a security patch for ALL versions of X-Cart other than 4.1.9. If you didn't, you can find the patch in the 'files' area of your help desk. If you download the patch (which you absolutely should), you will notice it does not include any .diff files, just the patched files themselves. This is not good, as replacing the files will overwrite any changes to them that you made. Be sure to make a backup of all these files before you upload the new versions, and if there are any issues with your store (particularly ones with third party mods), you can easily restore the old versions. Why they didn't issue this patch with .diff files is beyond me, as this creates a major headache for those of us who maintain multiple stores.
