 * Try deleting the plugin file(s) from the site. This has worked for me in the 
   past. Hope this helps.

 * Thanks, that worked. Now I’m fairly new to all of this, but I would be absolutely
   remiss if I didn’t suggest that there are some Plugins out there that look just
   great, but are heartstoppers, like this one. I’m certain that they work for many,
   but I suppose there are many other factors that come into play with regard to
   themes, etc. I would also be lacking if I didn’t point out that there are also
   a number of Plugins that I’ve used successfully, so I guess this is just sort
   of a caveat emptor. My site’s [http://www.asternglance.com](http://www.asternglance.com).
 * Thanks everyone for the continuing assistance.
