I can't argue with that.

You should probably upgrade again before fixing anything, then. PHP 4.4.8 is out and, as usual with PHP, fixes some security vulnerabilities.
Usually I'd agree. But in this case it really isn't worth the time to update PHP 4 anymore. Aside from some OOP issues on upgrades, the leap to PHP 5 doesn't cause nearly as much trouble as it gets press about. I've yet to break a non-OOP coded script in the transfer - admittedly, I cut my teeth on PHP4, so that may or may not mean much.
PHP6 is just around the corner, and support for 4 is all but done (what is it, one update left?).
