well, if you run a website it's a must to do regular backups anyway because nothing is 100% safe....just imagine there is a HDD crash (which happens more often than one might think). and if the version is shown as "outdated" it doesn't mean it's vulnerable at the same time...it only means it's not the up to date version, "outdated" versions can still be fully patched and secure.
but well, I have to admit apache 1.3.27 is a little strange...the up to date version of 1.3 is 1.3.37, and even distros which are known to keep older versions longer than others by patching them are already using 1.3.33...
