Some people may have noticed that the cool looking tag cloud to the right has been unusually.. well… dead for the last few days. At first I thought it was just my computer running out of ram and doing silly things (6 firefox sessions, each with 20+ windows, 12 page IE session, 10 page opera session, AIM, Outlook, AVG, FileZilla, EditPlus, & Fireworks… and a big ‘ol p.o.s. called vista will do that to a machine), but after a few people made a *subtle* comment that it was busted, I realised that I had to go and fix it.

After checking the official WP-Cumulus FAQ, I found this little bit that kinda explained what was going on:

“There have been some cases where WordPress’ Automatic Plugin Upgrade feature breaks the plugin. After upgrading the plugin the Flash movie file would be corrupt for some users.” (and by some they mean all..)

The irony is that I use automatic update to avoid problems like this… I guess it just comes back to the old rule: “If it ain’t broke, don’t touch a $%&ing thing!!”

Be sure to contact us if you notice anything else acting… special… lol
