Hello,

I updated the reCAPTCHA and other modules yesterday and since then I have been receiving email alerts from the server as follows:

Subject: lfd on server.myserver.com: Suspicious File Alert‏

Time: Thu Feb 21 15:10:57 2013 +0000
File: /tmp/update-extraction-7daa8f90/recaptcha/recaptcha-php-1.11/recaptchalib.php
Reason: Script, file extension

As suggested by another post I'm going to change Drupal's temp directory to something other than tmp which is not monitored by the firewall. Meanwhile could someone tell me what's wrong. Thank you.

That is one of the files in the reCAPTCHA package. The tmp copy of it should be removed after the new version is installed in your modules directory. You can erase that file.

Yes that solves it. Also I realized the problem is not related to reCAPTCHA because other modules can have tmp files as well. Thanks for your support.
