   I have installed a recent WP blog site. Everything was fine. Added 2 plugins (NextGen Gallery and WP-AdServe) which btw I have used and installed on other folk's WP sites before without a problem.

   Once I upload the files and enter the admin section the Plugins menu item gets me a pop-up to open the file instead of going to the admin/dashboard page for the plugins.

   When I remove the folders from the server, everything is fine again.

   I am using MushBlue 1.0 theme.

   I have never seen this before ... any ideas?

   Well, I took some advice from another post that seemed to be smart ... use process of elimination! As I sincerely doubted there was a theme problem it had to be a plugin problem.

   So, I deactivated all current plugins, uploaded all the plugins I wanted to use and refreshed to see if there was a plugin page lockup. Everything seemed okay.

   Then I activated each plugin one at a time, refreshing, going somewhere else in the dashboard, and visiting the site each time.

   Everything worked until I activated a certain plugin, eventually I found that 3 of the plugins I want to use are incompatible with some of the other plugins.

   So ... remember ... plugins can interfere with each other.
