 * Login screen is completely blank. Removed the .htaccess from root (put the old
   one back), removed the .htaccess from my sub directory and removed .htaccess 
   from wp-admin. I don’t know how someone can restore the .htaccess files when 
   you can’t even login?? **I just want this OFF my site. Please tell me how to 
   do that. **
 * I get so frustrated when plugins just don’t work. This was a fresh install on
   a new host and two plugins were activated. Askismet and WordPress Importer. I
   made a backup of my site but what good does that do when I can’t login?

 * Wow–this is really exciting now. When I go to my site, I am automatically logged
   into the Dashboard. Security has gone to heck now–anyone can access my website.
   Well, maybe not–it shows the my site in View Page mode but if I try to go to 
   the Dashboard, it reverts back to the blank screen.
 * Can I just delete the plugin from the plugins folder. Then do I have to install
   WordPress? What fun.

 * **This was not resolved with any information provided by BPS.** I was able to
   remove the plugin but only by searching WordPress.org for steps to remove a plugin.

 * There is no need to post this over and over again in several different places
   and also continuing to send me further emails. I get the point – you had difficulty
   removing BPS. I am glad you figured this out and I am sorry that this was so 
   difficult for you. The link I posted for you should have made it very easy and
   simple for you to accomplish removing the BPS plugin. Thank you.

 * There was a mixup regarding the plugin causing the issue/problem. These issues/
   problems are caused by the Better WP Security plugin and not the BulletProof 
   Security plugin.
