 * Installing this plugin took my site from loading in 4 seconds to loading in 18
   seconds. Far from making things better, this plugin dramatically REDUCED the 
   performance of my site.

 * Hi,
 * Let me guess this situation, because it sounds increasingly familiar.
 * I’ll guess you used W3 Total Cache before using this plugin, which left behind
   some .htaccess code, and didn’t clean up after itself, and that .htaccess code
   from W3 Total Cache is now interfering with the plugin.
 * Did I guess correctly?
 * Sincerely,
 * Adam
