 * So i used the new plugin update feature in my 2.5.1 installation to update BM
   Custom Login to the latest version (1.3) from 1.2 and for some reason it didn’t
   work (might have been that my folders werent all 777 and not sure if i had the
   upgrade folder at the time). I then tried to delete the plugin so i could do 
   a manual upgrade of the bm-custom-login plugin but then i didn’t have permissions
   to do so! I had to talk to support at my hosting company to fix this. They said
   it was an issue with some php script that had created it on installation. I’m
   wondering if this is a bug in WordPress or the bm-custom-login. I think from 
   assessing the situation that its a problem with plugin however i this is the 
   only plugin that ive had problems with. Have you come accross this Ben or anyone
   else? Btw AWESOME plugin Ben!! Love it.

 * So ive replicated the problem again, it turns out even if you chmod the /upgrade
   folder to 777 and the plugin folder and all subsequent subdirectory to 777, and
   it DOES update the problem still occurs. If you try to delete the plugin folder
   you cannot. Anyone else experiencing this?
    Best way to test it, if you upgrade
   the plugin via wordpress’s autoplugin update feature of course, is to try and
   delete this plugin via ftp and see if it lets you.
