As soon as I activated the plug-in, a message saying that the WPAU server (no idea what this is) was running in “safe mode” (again, no idea) and that I should contact the system administrator do change that status.
So… I died pretty early in the scheme of things.
I’d appreciate any enlightnment on this.
Thanks,
