Randomly Getting an Error..PLEASE HELP!

[tee-dot]

Hey all,

My site is http://www.iwannat.com and has been operating quite cleanly until out of nowhere I have gotten the following error:

Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/iwan6303/public_html/retail/includes/configure.php. This is a potential security risk - please set the right user permissions on this file (read-only, CHMOD 644 or 444 are typical). You may need to use your webhost control panel/file-manager to change the permissions effectively. Contact your webhost for assistance.

I absolutely need to fix this ASAP....my webhost is unable to help me and I have experimented with a variety of CHMODs (permissions) but none of them seem to work...The file was already 644 when the error happened...this is all so confusing!

Huge thanks to anyone who can help me!

Well, I fixed the problem, it turns out my FTP program was chmodding it "0444" and "0644" when it really needed to be "444"....kinda weird....
