 * My web host has automatic upgrading, but for some reason it does not work on 
   all of them. How can I upgrade it myself? Or is it so much trouble that I might
   as well uninstall wordpress and then reinstall and import my saved posts?

 * See if the following video helps…if you don’t have Cpanel, just use ftp for the
   file transfer part.
