Hi there

I am brand new to this, but taking action to ensure I am securing my WP site.

I came across this error message after installing WP Security Scan:
Warning: fileperms() [function.fileperms]: stat failed for ../.htaccess in /home/XXX/public_html/wp-content/plugins/wp-security-scan/functions.php on line 22

wp-content/plugins/ ../wp-content/plugins 0755 755.
wp-admin/ ../wp-admin 0755 755.

Could anyone please advice? I will really appreciate your help!
