 * I didn’t receive api key and cannot obtain a new one. I might have pressed confirmation
   button without entering email address during setup.
    In the dashboard I get a
   message “BruteProtect is almost ready. You must enter your BruteProtect API key
   for it to work. Obtain a key for free.” When I click the “obtain the key” link
   it takes me to configuration page, where I have an information that BruteProtect
   is working, but the api key field is blank. I have sent debug info earlier today,
   site is schlosser.com.pl

 * Hello,
 * It is possible that your site is having trouble talking to our API.
 * Try sending us a debug report by clicking the ‘Debug’ link at the bottom of your
   BruteProtect configuration page in your WordPress dashboard. Then click the ‘
   Send Report’ button.
 * Reply here with your site’s URL when you’ve sent it, and I’ll let you know what
   I find.
 * Thanks

 * I received the report.
 * When your server tries to contact our server via cURL, we get
    error:0D0890A1:
   asn1 encoding routines:ASN1_verify:unknown message digest algorithm
 * This usually is evidence that your server is running an older version of openSSL.
 * Please inform your server admin or hosting company of the error above, and to
   upgrade openSSL.
 * Thanks
