[pmwiki-users] My Host Claims there's a problem with SiteAdmin.Blocklist-MoinMaster

Hello,

This morning I received a note (see below) from my webhost, claiming that
/home/mhschoen/public_html/cricket/wiki.d/SiteAdmin.Blocklist-MoinMaster
contains something suspicious, and they have disabled it.

(The contents of that file are below.)

I updated to the current stable pmwiki version yesterday morning.

My first suspicion is that their software is being overly-cautious.

As far as I know, nothing on my computer remembers my FTP passwords, 
although given how "helpful" some programs are, I can't guarantee it, 
so, yes, I'll change the FTP and CPanel passwords to be safe.

The FTP attributes of the files in wiki.d vary. Most are 0664 
(-rw-rw-r--). The suspect file is now 0000.

I did not get the note for the other sites on the same server.

Searching pmwiki.org for moinmoin shows nothing about security or block 
lists.


Questions:

Has anyone had this problem before?

What is the best way to reactivate the protection I had from MoinMaster, 
or should I just disable it (and how)?

Why do my two other subsites have different dates for the same page? 
Their attributes are both 0664 (-rw-rw-r--).

Why is the file for one of the subsites only 2k and the others over 60?

Thanks,

Sandy
