dear team, unfortunately i wasnt able to post my question right as a follow-up on:
https://www.akeebabackup.com/support/admin-tools/23931-j-3-4-6-critical-security-update.html

davide writers there:
If you can't update (older version of Joomla), you can use the latest version of Admin Tools that we have just release; it will protect you.

but if i want to download the latest admintools version it says:
"Joomla! 3.x only"

so, is there or not a version for older joomla versions available?

Hello Konstantinos,

when I meant "older versions" I meant all Joomla 3.x versions. I missed you were running Joomla 2.5, sorry.
