[LUG]Re: Php version

 

They appear to have gone out of their way to make themselves as difficult to contact 
as possible. Even the FAQ has very few actual answers. That would set alarm bells

Are you able to access the DNS? If so, I would suggest putting everything behind 
CloudFlare, who are blocking malicious requests.
