Ioncube Loader Version Issue Again

[gravel]

This morning, I received the error below while trying to view my payment gateways. This happened in the past but it was caused by a payment gateway I do not use so I was able to delete the files to solve the problem. This time, it is a file I'm unsure about: internetsecure.php. Is it safe to delete this file? I'm not entirely sure what its used for since the comments only describe that its for WHMCS.

Hi @gravel,

Thanks for your post.

Internet Secure is an old payment provider no longer in business it is safe to remove this file.

Hey Gravel, 

Yes, you can remove this file. We are working internally to attempt to better handle files that require a previous version of the loader so that a WHMCS install will not just stop working like it has done here for you.
