Hey, It’s been a very long time ago since I have been here.
I have a question, please don’t shoot me if I did this at the wrong place
The question: If I login to do some changes I always see this message at the top:
WARNING: The file /home/fla/public_html/mainfile.php can be overwritten by the server.
Change the write permissions of this file for security reasons.
under Unix (444), under Windows (read only tick)

I have been searching and searching but can’t find how to solve this issue.

Can someone help me?

Using FTP software of your choice, you should change the Read/Write property of the file to "444" or "404"

However, sometimes your server doesn't allow for it, so having something like "604" might be OK too.

Then you should be OK - the key is that nobody but you as the owner can write to the file.

I thought it had something to do with the "unprotected" that I get when I visit
my website: ... " Niet beveiligd | www.fla-ts.com”
It is strange that this is not the case when I go to the website with Internet Explorer

Maybe I'm worried about nothing

Best regards, Fernand

That has nothing to do with XOOPS security. See:
