 * Hi, my website was hacked last week, since then I can’t activate or upgrade the
   download plugin. Has anyone had this problem happen before? This is the line 
   error that I am getting whenever I try to activate the plugin:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home2/modafaci/public_html/
   wp-content/plugins/download-manager_old/download-manager.php on line 14

 * You are seeing the error, means, your server using php version lover than 5.3,
   you will need 5.3 or higher.
 * and plugin dir name must be `download-manager`, now it is `download-manager_old`
   in your installation.
