Learned this the hard way today

On a 1.5.4 install I was looking for the phrase 'if (preg_match(' (without the quotes) in DTK and promptly got error 403 - access denied. All I can say: security works!

But before I got there I thought 'WTF, are file or folder permissions changed? Did some .htaccess files change?' etc etc

So, I reset permissions of all *.php files to 644 (except for the 2 configure.php files), checked that all folders are 755 or 777 if required, checked the .htaccess files >> all good! Tried again, same result - until I got to this post and it clicked.

Next search was just for 'preg_match' and bingo!

Thanks Melanie, only shows that we are never too old to learn something new!
