 * Hi..Am trying to make my WordPress site as safe as possible from hackers and 
   have read that one of the simple but important things to do is move the WP-config
   file up a level.
 * Here is my question please – Would installing the Bullet Proof Security plugin
   take care of moving this file for me?
