    Upgrade the askiment plugin version. Now you can do it in your control panel.

    Even I got this error after upgrading it has become fine :)

    We are getting the same message and much more spam than normal.

    We also tried to upgrade (had upgraded as of a week or two ago) but we are getting server errors there too.

    I am running WP 2.8.4 and Askiment 2.2.6. I have been encountering the problem all day today and have received about 40 spam comments as real comments. I have the problem with the "DNS" issue.

    Urgh! When is this going to be fixed. All week I have suffered with this problem.

    I am running WP 2.8.4 and Askiment 2.2.6. I have been encountering the problem all day today and have received about 40 spam comments as real comments. I have the problem with the "DNS" issue.

    I went to my host and did an nslookup for rest.akismet.com. Found it. Then I telneted to port 80 of that server. No problem. There doesn't seem to be a "firewall" issue. What's up with this?
