 * Hello,
 * I am using a Dreamhost Hosted site [http://www.ghhsathletics.com](http://www.ghhsathletics.com)
   on a shared system. I am trying to back up my WordPress site. I clicked on Back
   up Now button and it is grayed out and says backup in Progress for about 2 hours
   now. How long should I wait?
 * How can I cancel the backup and start over?
 * Thanks,
    Dave

 * If you refresh that page, it should un-grey itself.
 * Your folder is 900+ megs, though, and on a shared box, that’s why it’s not working
   🙁
