    Been using this plugin for awhile and seemed to work well. Then today at about noon, the entire site went down with a 500 error. Checking the cPanel error logs we found:
    [22-May-2013 12:36:17] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 171037 bytes) in /home1/xxxxxxxxxxx/public_html/wp-content/plugins/better-wp-security/inc/filecheck.php on line 220

    Many times; then many times more with line 494, then more of same with lns 182, 184 187, 189.

    After removing the plugin, site back up, but lost an hour on a very busy day. Not happy at all.

    Sorry to hear about it.

    Error 500 means your website is using memory more than allowed. I guess you have enabled these features in this Better WP Security:

    – File Change Detection (under: menu > Security > Intrution Detection)
    – Enable Scheduled Backups (under: menu > Security > Database Backup)

    These two above usually need much memory to run.
