 * Hi !
    Problem …plugin files are viewable by anonymous . My plugin file URLs are
   viewable by anonyous . I checked all the plugins .Does it causes an heavy damage?
 * I check the .htaccess file permissions and it is set to 644 .I don’t understand
   where the problem is and how to solve it .

   same problem for all

 * It’s normal, and shouldn’t cause any problems. 644 is about the lowest you should
   go. Keep in mind that, if a file can’t be viewed by a browser, then it (and its
   functions) can’t be included either.

 * Thanks ! I worried because a while ago I got a similar problem and it is fixed
   by my host (I am not sure what files are they .but I remember plugin files ).
   They said that it may cause problem.
 *  Thanks for your help
