 * Every time I install plugin I get this error: The plugin generated 29086 characters
   of unexpected output during activation. If you notice “headers already sent” 
   messages, problems with syndication feeds or other issues, try deactivating or
   removing this plugin.
 * It’s happened the last 3 plugin installations. Any ideas on what might be causing
   this or what I can do to fix this? Thanks for any suggestions.

 * I recommend asking at plugin’s dedicated support so the plugin’s developers and
   support community can help you with this.

 * Thanks for reply.
 * Only thing, it’s not one plugin that is causing issue, it’s several. I get the
   message whenever I activate any plugin. So I’m not sure what plugin is bad, or
   if it’s even a plugin at all.
