Due to known Apache security hole on shared hosting servers it is strongly recommended that you add the following string (w/o quotes) to .htaccess file of your websites:

"Options +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch"

Please be advised that you'll get Error 500 on your websites in case you are going to use "Options +FollowSymlinks" or "Options +All" in .htaccess file.
