Removing CHMOD 644 error message

i have managed to change the attributes i=on my configure files but i still get the

Warning: I am able to write to the configuration file: /home/fhlinux162/p/paws4pets.co.uk/user/htdocs/zencart/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.

the files are already set to 644 anybody got any ideas how to get rid of the message.

Thanks

Re: Removing CHMOD 644 error message

some systems require the 444 and you may need to change the settings from your cpanel.

If you find a lot of your directories at 755, then 444 will be needed to stop the flag.
