The XOOPS development team is pleased to announce the release of XOOPS 2.0.17.1.

This is merely a bugfix release. Some main changes include:
- Bugfix for login problems with some IE browsers caused by session_regenerate_id on some PHP versions;
- Improvement on uploader mimetype check

Users who still suffer from login problem after implementing the patch are suggested to turn on custom session in system preferences, or set "enableRegenerateId" to FALSE in /kernel/session.php line #78.
