 * I have had v2.6 since it came out and have had no problems except a lot of spam
   comments. I have taken proper measures to prevent this spam. I started not being
   able to write posts, edit, delete comments etc. I cant install or delete plug
   ins either. I upgraded to 2.7 and nothing has improved. I deleted the entire 
   WP folder on my ftp and reinstalled. I haven’t done anything with my mysql db.
   Does anyone have any idea how i can fix this problem?

 * You probably should have addressed the problem before upgrading, but as long 
   as your database is still there, you should still be okay. Are you getting any
   kind of error message? Did you do anything different before this started happening?
   Can you post a link to your site?

 * my database is fine, error messages range from, “You do not have permission to
   do that.” During auto save while writing a post”
 * “Your attempt to activate this plugin: “PLUGIN NAME” has failed.”
 * trying to delete comments,the comment will flash red.
 * Also, when i try to log out, i get this message
 * You are attempting to log out of I Made The Internet
 * Please try again.

 * Oh, I see…the name of your site is imadetheinternet 🙂 When I saw that in your
   line above about logging out, I assumed a hacker had put that there 😉
 * I’m not sure what else to suggest without being able to look at the account.

 * i tried completely removing WP, and putting it back up, but no help. SO i am 
   assuming it has something to do with my DB. What can i do to see if i can fix
   it?

 * Do you know how to use phpMyAdmin to dump the database as an sql file? If so,
   if you dump it, zip it and post it somewhere so I can download it, I’ll take 
   a look and see what I can find. You can email me the download location at 234figaro432[

 * I’m about to hit the sack, so won’t be able to look at it until tomorrow.
