 * The following error message appears at the top of the dashboard:
 * An automated WordPress update has failed to complete – please attempt the update
   again now.
 * I am running the highest version and everything seems to be working fine but 
   since WordPress shutdown for a couple of minutes yesterday for maintenance this
   message has appeared and I cannot make it go away. I click on the attempt again
   link and nothing happens.
