> Note that doing that may be dangerous because it's possible that people
may be able to view the file wp-config.php.orig using the web server.
Thanks, yeah, I removed the .orig file shortly after. Perfectly valid
warning!
> Are you sure it is not some plugin that is doing this?
I'll check, will try to disable the plugins one by one, it might very well
be one of them. Will report back soon.
