 * I am new to WordPress and web development. I downloaded wordpress 2.6.2 from 
   Go Daddy which works just fine but there’s that annoying message that 2.6.3 is
   available, please update now. I’ve tried to update three times and each time 
   I go to my blog it tells me I’m using 2.6.2. Help somebody!

 * Also since 2.6.2 to 2.6.3 involved only 4 files you could upload those 4 files.
 * Here’s the names of those four files:
    wp-admin/includes/media.php wp-content/
   plugins/akismet/akismet.php wp-includes/class-snoopy.php wp-includes/version.
   php

 * So if I wanted to upgrade my Version of wordpress on GoDaddy, do I just:
 * 1) Download the newest version (2.6.3) of wordpress
    2) Unzip the file 3) Locate
   the files you mention and, FINALLY 4) Upload them to the paths above?
 * Thanks in advance for your help!

 * Hopefully you are asking,”Do I delete the four OLD files first?”. If so, then
   I second samboll on that.
