 * My WordPress editor says: “ATTENTION: A possible old version of the TimThumb 
   script was detected in your theme folder. Please remove the following files from
   your theme as a security precaution:
    – thumb.php”
 * I have checked the script for this file and it is up to date. How can I clear
   the message, or is there still a problem?
