HI

Its just a question of setting the correct rights on the file if you are running apache on linux set to 444 if you are running apache on windows right click the file in your site directory and set to read only.

 

You have the path to the file right here

C:/apache2triad/htdocs/index/catalog/includes/configure.php

 

hope this helps

that is a big problem anyone can edit my site,

You need to password protect the catalog/admin folder in your store.

This is done via your webserver usually using .htaccess or an

 

automatic directory password protect function on your webserver.

If you don't know how to use .htaccess check this out:

Your server should also be able to help you with this configuration

Backup before making changes. Backup before making changes! Backup before making changes!!

 

You did do a backup? eh?
