    I can't tell what the 'other' site is on and whether they'd be more or less vulnerable

    They are on an even older version in the 3.6 range.

    I find it very odd that Internet Brands bought vBulletin, has the vast majority of their sites running it and they have not been updated to the latest version. You would think if you are creating and selling a product for forums and you run 100's of forums more than just a handful would be using the latest version of said software. I could see if the product was new, but its been out since December and is on version 4.0.5 now.

    Oh yeah, it sucks, thats why they don't use it.
