 * I cannot active the plugin in WordPress due to a redirect loop. Any attempt to
   access any page in the WordPress backend results in WordPress attempting to access
   the following:
 * /wp-admin/admin.php?page=backwpupabout
 * The only way to get back into WordPress is to delete the plugin via FTP. How 
   can I active the plugin with out the redirect loop?
