   Hello, I just started my blognetwork with wordpress and is wondering how I can autoactivate akismet for everybody that creates a new blog on the network without they having to get a key themself and activate it?

   assuming you have purchased the appropriate API

   open askimet.php

   find the line

   $wpcom_api_key = '';

   enter your API to look like

   if ( defined('WPCOM_API_KEY') )
   	$wpcom_api_key = constant('WPCOM_API_KEY');
   else
   	$wpcom_api_key = 'ENTER YOUR API NUMBER HERE';
   y

   You should set the definition of WPCOM_API_KEY in wp-config.php, not in akismet.php. That way the setting will be preserved even after you update the Akismet plugin.
