 * Would you mind updating your php to version 5, and remove your broken mark from
   this version?

 * The requirements only stated wp version 2.8 or higher. I’m using 2.9.2. There
   was no mention of the database or I wouldn’t have taken the time to download 
   and install the plugin.

 * I would advise you to read the first known issue in the FAQ, it is not our intention
   to support php4, and 2.9.2 support will soon be obsolete as well, I am sorry 
   we have wasted so much of your precious time.

 * And I also suggest you upgrade to php5 for many other reasons, not only this 
   plugin
