I have changed it to CHMOD 644 and it is now letting me run the upgrade script no issues. so i would imagine it is okay now?
is it still best to replace the file given the info below even if going to upgrade?
The owner of the account that i run this all on just let me know also - only now even though this was months ago it happened
1&1 sent them an email ages back but has only just let me know that it happened. They shut us down for a little bit back then, and said it was a malicious attack on the server such as a virus being uploaded and told us to change all log in's etc and what to do. and reading the massive email they sent him and that i now only have received. it had this in it, and well looky here!
