1. Get the right update package from the sourceforge file repository
2. Overwrite files in XOOPS directory on your server with the content of /htdocs

3. Update the "System" module from the modules administration interface, as well as "Profile", "PM", and "Protector", as they have new GUI.

it is full steam ahead on 2.6.0.

In the class kernel/objects.php exists a function destoryVars is a bug, or should this be so?

It seems to me that it should be destroyVars, based on the comments above /*unset variable(s) for the object*/!
