 * Help!
 * I tried to install 2.5 and it went wrong so I deleted it and pressed the revert
   to older version button – I use go daddy. That didn’t work so I completely uninstalled
   WP and reinstalled it. And now it says that this site is coming soon. When I 
   called go daddy they said something about writing a redirect script and something
   about roots… and that this isn’t their problem. I have had my blog since Nov.’
   07 and never had to write a script before…
 * Should I delete every file in the FTP and try to reinstall again? or move to 
   a host that can install WP for me?
 * Any advice,prayers or words of encourage would be gladly accepted.

 * (Always make backup first)
 * I am not sure about GoDaddy, but if there’s a ‘index.html’ file in the folder
   that you normally upload your files to, delete it and upload a new copy of wp2.5
   to your site. If you still have your old WordPress’ database information, use
   them to edit the /wp-config-sample.php and rename the file to wp-config.php.
 * If you don’t, but you have the database backup before the upgrade, use that database
   in the wp-config file.
 * Or if you didn’t backup anything, you probably need a fresh installation.
 * GoDaddy should be able to install WordPress by the way (disclaimer: I don’t use
   GoDaddy).
