 * We’ve been using this plugin successfully for a few years now, but just lately,
   we’re seeing it causing random 404 errors on images. Our hosting tech support
   said it was due to .htaccess rules inserted by the plugin ‘routing static images
   through the PHP engine and overloading the server’. This has happened on a few
   different hosting servers, all LAMP stacks running cPanel.
 * I’d appreciate any guidance
 * Thanks

 * Hi Dave,

 * Are these sites hosted in the same server or different servers? Do you know if
   these servers have been updated and or changes made to them lately? The reason
   why I am asking, is because the plugin has been working fine for a couple of 
   years and all of a sudden it started causing this issue.
 * Also, do you know what rule was entered in the .htaccess file by our plugin? 
   This would help me know which feature is causing this issue.
 * However if you can’t remember the rule, try the following step. Deactivate all
   Firewall rules. Then carry out a test.
 * Let me know how you go.
 * Thank you
