   use ftp, or file manager if your host offers it to delete it from wp-content->plugins

   may also need to delete a file called something like advanced-cache.php in wp-content

   don't worry too much, something is just blocking your site... it's not lost.

   Lemem see if I can find my notes about W3TC when I removed it, or hopefully someone else jumps in, but it can be saved

   does w3tc add anything to your.htaccess file that needs deleted?

   Also, in your wp-config.php file it may have added something that should be deleted

   I'm just running off foggy memory from when I uninstalled it

   Thanks again. I am not an advanced user when it comes to coding so any suggestion on what to look for in the .htaccess and/or wp.config.php file would be much appreciated.
