 * This plugin works like a charm on all of my sites with the exception of one. 
   I receive a message when creating an initial backup that reads, “The database
   backup folder is not writable. Please check write-permissions!!”
 * I went back and forth with my ISP for the past two weeks, and unfortunately the
   developer does not keep his blog updated, so it looks like I will be using a 
   different plugin.
 * Any suggestions?
