 * Don’t use the remove data if you have multisite running. It will delete the data
   for all of your sites on that box.
 * I use clone to copy sites to new sites and tweak them. I noticed that it cloned
   the stats also. So I checked and found the remove feature. Oops… I’m restoring
   from backup now.

 * Now the site that I ran the remove data on won’t show the stats after restoring
   the stats tables. I just get “WP Statistics has been removed, please disable 
   and delete it.” and “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”
 * All the other sites still work.
