 * I’ve used this plugin for about a year now and most of the time it locks up when
   uploading to Dropbox – but I could not find a plugin that was any better.
 * The newest version does NOT backup plugins – I have no idea why the author dropped
   them but this plugin is no longer a true backup so I’ve just uninstalled it from
   all my websites.
 * I’m now using BackUpWordPress which does not backup to Dropbox but does work 
   ALL the time and keeps backups, true backups, on the website and weekly I just
   use HostGator to backup all my websites into 1 big file and download to my PC.
   And it’s free.
 * Anyway, that’s my experience………..Bye Bye………..
