Ah, the good old dl() function. It's like the 'Please Steal My Identity' button on your hosting dashboard.

Option C? Really? Disabling the dl() function by adding it to disable_classes? That's like trying to lose weight by eating more cake.

I'm going with options A and B. Can't go wrong with the classic php.ini tweaks. Keeps things simple and secure.

Option B looks good to me. Adding dl to the disable_functions list is a clean way to restrict its usage without affecting the entire system.

I'm not a fan of option D. Writing a custom function called dl() and then using the auto_prepend_file directive seems too complex and could potentially cause issues down the line.
