 * I just updated to the latest version, and am now getting a ‘Action security failed,
   please repeat action’ error message, and the plugin’s backend does not load.

 * I am sorry – there is absolutely no reports of this error occurring anywhere 
   else with any other product or ours. Hard to know what is the cause of this message.
   It certainly is unique to your installation. Does this error go away with older
   versions of this plugin? Can you load back the older version and check?
 * We did not have too many changes between the latest and older versions of the
   plugin and hence I am surprised things would be different with this plugin.
