Has worked great for months, now syntax error

[noahvail]

Script URL: http://www.dc-baby.com/ccount/
Version of script: 1.2
Hosting company: Modwest
URL of phpinfo.php: http://phpinfo.modwest.com
URL of session_test.php: ??
What terms did you try when SEARCHING for a solution: syntax error, parse error, T_VARIABLE

I have been using ccount successfully for months, and now /ccount/index.php will not load. The page displays the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /htdocs/www/ccount/index.php on line 1

Thank in advance,
Noah

I believe this may be an issue with my web host, which is upgrading their shared hosting environment. I'll post again once I confirm either way.

It seems your host has added something to the top of all your PHP files which is breaking the code.

Thanks for your response. It turns out a hacker gained FTP access and messed with a ton of PHP files. I believe it to be some kind of black-hat SEO spyware operation. I will be reinstalling ccount.
