 * Hi,
 * When I enter my API key it takes quite long and then appears not to accept the
   API key. Just empty as before.
    I used Akismet for years without any problem.
   These sites were registered already for a long time. Latest versions of everything.
 * Any idea? Thanks in advance for looking into this.
    Pieter
