 * We’re seeing some very strange activity with version 3.2.5 of your plugin.
 * Firstly, according to Hostgator, when upgrading to 3.2.5 it caused cpu processes
   to rise to 78% resulting in our account being limited.
 * Then an automatated server mallware check flagged this folder “uploads/wpo”
 * Then Wordfence flagged several files titled “test.php” created by your plugin.
 * Then your plugin tried to send the following via SMTP:
 * “`[DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file
    [DEBUG] : Should we use webp? [DEBUG] :[
   DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG]:
   Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Setting
   up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess
   file [DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [
   DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG]:
   Setting up .htaccess file [DEBUG] : Should we use webp?`”
 * (Note the above was repeated 500 times. Our email security system kicked in to
   prevent the email from breaking cpu limits.)
 * Clearly your plugin has been compromised. We’ve removed it from all our sites.
 * Please let us know when it works again.

   and will launch a new version soon.
