Notice: iconv_strpos(): Detected an illegal character in input string in /public_html/lib/Zend/Currency.php on line 199

Hello All.

I'm working on a project for the past 2 months. Everything has been smooth until today. I'm getting an error in system.log Notice: iconv_strpos(): Detected an illegal character in input string in /home/sitename/public_html/lib/Zend/Currency.php on line 199.

It seems that this error is causing the front end and backend to timeout causing major server load.

Any help will be much appreciated.

Issue found and fixed. Changed the permission of index.php to 400. Worked like a charm.
