I'm working in a VWS environment - whilst I am in contact with the
system administrator, I don't have access to any config outside of my
own account.

Hrmm.. So if I got the ISP to chown the file me.webserver and then set
chmod 640, making sure that every user's PHP settings meant they
couldn't work with/read files outside their home directories, and all
other scripting systems were equally configured, or set to run SUID user
(Ie. Perl), this should render the file in question inaccessible to
other users excl. the webserver group and root?
