GrahamW78 im not sure its just the old php versions mate, from what ive seen its alot more often the stuff sat on top, like out of date plugins or a cms nobody's updated in years. Even current php wont help if thier is a dodgy plugin on there, so i'd check that and your hosting password before rebuilding owt. Bloody boring job but definately cheaper than starting from scratch 👍

There was a PHP update a few days ago that was specifically for that purpose.

Should be half decent on the latest php update until they figure that one out. Stupid AI hack bots are relentless.
