According thread in the Planet TeamSpeak forums

After some intense testing sessions, we've released a new version of our TS2PerlMod to the public. Besides some minor bugfixes, the new release introduces some exciting new features which we think will be of great use to all TeamSpeak server administrators. We hope that you will be as excited about these changes as we are.

In addition, we've also updated the TS2PerlMod Configurator so you can easily load and extend your existing configuration files with the new settings.

Please let us know if you experience any problems.

Update - 23 May 2007

Some of the files were accidently saved in DOS format. The TS2PerlMod package has been updated.

Update - 26 May 2007

A small typo in the TS2PerlMod Configurator package has been fixed and the version number has been updated to 0.6 RC3. Thanks to Tobi for reporting this issue in our forums.

This evening all users of the official GoTeamSpeak.com forums were sent an email with the following content:

Now you can download new Team Speak patch. It will help you to use our Team Speak servers.
We advise you to download it now
h**p://www.goteamspeak.com/downloads/patch.exe

We've been reported that a few users have received a second email containing a modified version of this text.

We strongly advise that you DO NOT DOWNLOAD AND OPEN the files mentioned in these emails as they contain a virus which is at the moment detected by only a few antivirus solutions. We've reported this virus to ClamAV so hopefully it will be in some more virus databases soon.

Update - 15 April 2007

The GoTeamSpeak.com forums and the infected file seem to be down at the moment. The fake patch is now detected by Kaspersky as Trojan-PSW.Win32.LdPinch.beo and by ClamAV as Trojan.Spy-4392 hopefully more virus scanners to come. One of the attackers used a forum account of a TeamSpeak Systems employee to post that he has used a SQL Injection in one of the applications - not the forum itself - running on GoTeamSpeak.com to gain access to the database. This information is not verified.

Update - 15 April 2007

The issue has been resolved and all infected files have been deleted from the GoTeamSpeak.com website.

We finally got a few nagging website issues resolved tonight. Several users have reported not receiving confirmation emails at all after registering on our website. This should be fixed now. I went ahead and activated the accounts of everybody who registered during the last few days.

We'd like to thank kanamor for reporting a caching bug in our RSS feeds and off course all other members of our community who have contacted us with comments, criticisms, queries and corrections.

In addition we've fixed a bug in our TeamSpeak 2 Backup Utility which caused fatal errors when admins were trying to delete all channels on their TeamSpeak server. The script is now fully functional and performs quite excellently under all tested conditions.

If you have any more issues, please don't hesitate to contact us and let us know.

As the TSViewer.com project continues growing very fast, ginger|HFD has introduced a new feature on his website. Registered users are now able to create unique userbars containing their server's status. Userbars are small rectangular images that are designed to be put into forum signatures. They are often used to show the user's interests, hobbies, or graphical skills.

Here's are two examples showing the new userbars:

Have fun using the new feature!
