    Hi!

    I got an email from my hosting company, that themes with the timthumb.php file are a serious weakness regarding security. I could update other websites on my account which have woothemes, but I am not able to fix this issue on the one site I have got Infinity remix installed and activated.
    Is there a solution or fix for this? Can you advise me what I should do?

    Thanks for your advice :)

    The timthumb script developer updated his script and we took that new build and updated the Infinity Remix theme. If you download a new build from here and update your site you should have the new updated version of the timthumb script.

    If you have done a lot of customization to your theme then you probably just want to update the timthumb script only rather than the whole theme. In this case just copy the "script/timthumb.php" file from this new build and upload it to the correct folder on your server.
