Anti-Spam Hack Glitches

Hello,

I was told a good anti-spam hack would be to replace wp-comments-post.php with another file (here, wp-comments-post-nospam.php), which would serve as the de facto WP comments file.

Next direction had me change the site’s theme’s comments.php file, which I did. I replaced wp-comments-post.php with wp-comments-post-nospam.php.

However, I’m getting the following error messages whenever I try posting test comments:

Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /home/[root name]/public_html/blog/wp-comments-post-nospam.php:1) in /home/[root name]/public_html/blog/wp-comments-post-nospam.php on line 95

Any ideas on how this can be resolved? Below is the theme’s comments.php file. The only change made is to the code in bold.

Any assistance would be much appreciated.
