    I have to agree with the previous comment. This was such a pain in the neck to work around...and so simple a fix.

    Thank you.

    same chit with 2.9.1 upgrade, it WOULD NOT work if you are on 1and1 unless you modify the .HTACCESS file , just did it and it did upgrade to 2.9.1
    content of the .htaccess file below

    # BEGIN AnyFont
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^images/(.*)/(.*)\.png$ wp-content/plugins/anyfont/img.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END AnyFont

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

    # END WordPress

    ======================================
    the line that says:

    AddType x-mapp-php5 .php

    was added in there or it wouldn't upgrade automatically on 1and1 to 2.9.1 again!
    =============================================

    I just tried this, the upgrade seemed to work, but now I'm getting a 500 error on every single page of the blog except the home page. AAAAGGGGHHHH!! Is 1&1 worth the trouble? Any suggestions on WP-friendly hosting?
