Since I upgraded this Blog on Wednesday… from WordPress 2.3.1 to WordPress 2.8 , I’ve been inundated with tons  of spam! 

I read a tip on the WordPress.org website to move the Askimet.php file into the root directory of the plugins folder.  Not sure if this will work, but I gave it a try.  Seems harmless enough and might actually help!

I’ll report back as soon as I see a difference in spam alerts!

1) I used the “WordPress Automatic Upgrade” Plugin – SUCCESSFULLY

2) My version of Windows XP Professional SP3 is so high on security (something I DID NOT set) that it is almost impossible to download files — even when — I want them.

3) Ultimately I will now… Have to figure out how the NEW WordPress 2.7 works.

LUCKY ME — I purchased two books from Amazon to help me make the transition.

The most important thing is that WordPress 2.7 seems to have been upgraded SUCCESSFULLY and WITHOUT incident!

THANK YOU Computer Gods!

The group will support the WordPress Software as well as Bloggers using it to help them achieve the best experience possible from their use of WordPress and its related plugins.
