If you have the Apache mod_proxy enabled, either configure it
securely or disable it entirely.

Also, double-check your use of PHP-based stuff-- the security of PHP
is sufficiently bad that it's pretty common for sites to get hacked
if they aren't careful about securing it and updating to the latest
versions as new security holes in PHP-based stuff are exploited.  You
might want to run portaudit...

 I all ready have Apache mod_proxy commented out in httpd.conf and there is
no php stuff installed in system.
