 * This is my first time using WordPress and everything has gone according to instruction
   but after clicking install now i get this message:
 * Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/a2892617/public_html/wp-includes/
   default-filters.php on line 81
 * I have tried searching for the file “wp-includes” but its not in my fileZilla
   and i also downloaded wordpress 3.9.1 again in case i missed placed it but still
   cant be found.
 * Am I looking for the right thing or am i completely barking up the wrong tree
   if so please instruct me on how to fix this issue. cheers

 * Try re-uploading all files & folders – **except** the root wp-config.php file–
   from a **fresh** download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies
   of files & folder before uploading the new ones.
