 * I was on an earlier version 2.6.4 and I tried performing a search replace and
   received a bunch of error messages:
 * Access denied for user ”@’localhost’ (using password: NO)
 * I upgraded to 3.0 and it doesnt seem to be exectuting at all. I am trying to 
   search/replace a section of shortcode. Specifically,
 * This: orderBy=”viewCount” start=”1″]
 * With This: orderBy=”viewCount” start=”1″ width=”595″]
 * But nothing happens
