Installed Fine but Security Problem

[Guest]

Hi.

 

After installing OSCommerce all is fine but after deleting all the install files, ammending .htaccess i noticed that i have to modify the http_config file on the server too to finish off all the security measures shown in the OSCommerce installation documentation. I contacted my host about this and they said they do not touch the file on apache because of the risks involved so i just don't know what to do as i will be using it to accept live payments through WorldPay so it must be secure. Please help. Is this needed or is there another way round it without using my own server or finding a host that supports access to the http_config file.

 

Thanks for any help in advance.
