 * I keep getting the following message and I do not have any idea what to do to
   resolve it:
 * Your backup folder MIGHT be visible to the public
 * To correct this issue, move the .htaccess file from wp-content/plugins/wp-dbmanager
   to /home/lamar/public_html/mygreatalaskaadventure.com/wp-content/backup-db
 * thanks

 * currently where is your .htaccess file? And where is your blog located?
 * It depends on your file system. normaly .htaccess file should be at the same 
   location where your wordpress is (where wp-admin is). But not sure what is backup-
   db..

 * I do not have any idea where this file is. If I did I would move it.

 * Search the htaccess file for your domain and place it under the root folder..
