UPDATE, 11 November 2013

The web server software on all our servers has been downgraded due to a large number of outdated websites scripts. A new date has been set to the 31th January 2014. This should give enough time for website owners to have their websites upgraded to the latest version of Joomla, Wordpress, OpenCart and other scripts that are being used. 

PHP 5.3 was announced End Of Life in March 2013: http://php.net/releases/5_3_20.php
