Thanks Paul I see what you are saying. The issue I am having is a mail run script is being triggered without my execution which happened on 23rd but the date on my files connected to the mail run script showed only text file of the email addresses had been executed and there ws no php script executed which led me to the conclusion that a mail script was possibly running from a bot. so since it is not the .index_cron.php file which does not exist I am now stumped as to how I find the culprit I would really appreciate your thoughts on this.

1 I deleted all cron Jobs from Directadmin dashboard but a previous old cron Job is still being activated by the Monibot crawler i.e 3.14.66.101 - - [23/Nov/2024:11:03:44 -0500] "GET /2024-2021/Community_Bible_Fellowship_Messages_2022/.index_cron.php HTTP/1.1" 404 3882 "-" "Monibot" I want to delete this .index_cron.php script completely so that it does not get crawled and executed. The script .index_cron.php does not appear anywhere in my domain files
