 * I am having a problem where the pluggable.php permissions are being changed from
   read/write to read only sporadically.
 * I am asuming this is some sort of hack as the website is running fine with no
   changes being made and then crashes and an error message is displayed that it
   cannot access pluggable.php
 * All functionality is restored when the permissions are reverted, but it happens
   again a month or so later.

 * I am having this same problem, only it changes the instant I log off the server.
 * I change the permissions to read/write 644 and then it reverts back to 200.
 * Anyone have any idea what is going on or how to stop this from happening?
 * Thanks
