Yes, I backup the database weekly, although have never tried to do a reload from the backup. I use a plugin for that. PHP is 5.2.17 and I am on MySQL5.0.
My fear in disabling plugins and trying the upgrade again is that it will partially complete and leave me without a working site. Is that likely once it starts?
Any other thoughts?

Thanks for the speedy reply. I found two folders for Akismet – one in wp-content and another in plugins in that folder. I deleted both folders and reinstalled Akismet. It worked perfectly. Thanks!
