ive tried looking for the answer to this but haven't had any luck. A few days ago our Magento store suddenly stopped working and comes up with a blank white screen no matter what page we try to access, frontend or backend. I managed to find some info in the error log which is repeating this error:

[01-Sep-2014 10:27:28 Europe/London] PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected ''*#fubfsdXk5%x5c%x78644f6~6<&w' (T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE) in /home/grippcou/public_html/index.php on line 1

Does anyone have any idea on how to fix this?

Thanks Chris

Hi John, the file its referencing is the default index page for our Magento install which contains the blowfish password so cant really paste it, not much help i know! I had a look at the link HAL9000 but the error on there assumes the code is wrong when the site has been running fine for months. I havent changed anything on the site in weeks. I had a look at the FTP logs and no one else has accessed it either. –  Chris 2 days ago
