== Frequently Asked Questions ==
= Why did you create this plugin? =
I hate comment spam because it bloats my database. I found that nearly 50% of these email addresses were invalid. Thus this plugin was born. 

= I activated the plugin but I still get spam =
This plugin is not 100% protection around the spam. It just protects your blogs from bots entering spam email addresses to create accounts and comments.

= I installed the plugin but it is not working =
This plugin required access to fsockopen and your hosting provider should have port 25 access open to do deep server email checks.

= I get a *401 Unauthorized* error when I verify the API key but I\'m very sure that it is correct =
You could be using the normal API key, for this plugin you need to enter the **Public API Key** this is slightly 
longer than the normal API key and is found just below it.
