The PHP developers recently released versions 5.4.41, 5.5.25 and 5.6.9 that fix several bugs. We’ve upgraded PHP 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6 on our servers as a result.

In addition, the company that makes the Zend Guard Loader software has finally released versions compatible with PHP 5.5 and 5.6, so we’ve made that option available in the “PHP Settings” area of our My Account control panel (with all the usual caveats about why encoded scripts are inherently unreliable).
We’ve renewed the SSL certificate on our mail servers (because it was due to expire soon).
Almost all customers shouldn’t notice any change, but if you read e-mail using a secure connection with an unusual mail program that doesn’t handle SSL connections properly, you might be asked to “accept” the new certificate.
The PHP developers recently released versions 5.4.39, 5.5.23 and 5.6.7 that fix several bugs. We’ve upgraded PHP 5.4, 5.5 and 5.6 on our servers as a result.

We’ve added experimental support for the new PHP 5.6 series, although the default for new accounts remains PHP version 5.5 for now.
Adventurous customers can choose PHP 5.6 as a new option in our My Account control panel. Keep in mind that some scripts are not yet compatible with PHP 5.6, and there may be unexpected problems because it’s new and relatively untested.
If you try it and have any trouble, contact us and we’ll do our best to help.

Although we haven’t offered the long-obsolete PHP 5.2 series to new customers for some time, some who signed up long ago are still using it.
(New customers have defaulted to using PHP 5.5 for the last few months, and PHP 5.3 was the default for several years before that. We’ve also previously nagged everyone still using PHP 5.2 by e-mail, asking them to upgrade to at least PHP 5.3.)
For those customers still using PHP 5.2 despite the nagging, this is just a quick note that we’ve “rebuilt” PHP 5.2.17 for technical reasons to allow it to keep running on our systems. It now uses slightly newer versions of various libraries, including libxml, FreeType, ImageMagick, MySQL, and OpenSSL. The rebuilt version will be deployed on all our servers within the next few hours.
These changes should not be noticeable. In the unlikely event you experience any trouble, don’t hesitate to contact us.
