   Hi Guys,

   Hope all of you are doing great, wish you can help me out here regarding Akismet Activation.

   I've read the instructions but I can't seem to find the key.

   At my dashboard, when I tried to get my "Akismet Stats"

   I saw the following:

   (Quote)
   Address Not Found
   Firefox can't find the server at .web.akismet.com.

   The browser could not find the host server for the provided address.

   * Did you make a mistake when typing the domain? (e.g. "ww.mozilla.org" instead of "www.mozilla.org")
   * Are you certain this domain address exists? Its registration may have expired.
   * Are you unable to browse other sites? Check your network connection and DNS server settings.
   * Is your computer or network protected by a firewall or proxy? Incorrect settings can interfere with Web browsing.
   (Unquote)

   Please help, if possible.

   You need to either log into or make an account at wordpress.com. Your API key is in your dashboard there.
