 * Hi Paul,
 * I have so far used the Wordfence Security plugin combined with the Stop Spammers
   Spam Prevention plugin.
 * I’ve given up on Wordfence Security plugin.
 * Now I use Shield WordPress Security plugin.
 * I would like to know whether it makes sense continue to use the Stop Spammers
   Spam Prevention plugin? I suppose all this features has Shield plugin also. On
   the other hand, I had a problem with the HTTP Headers option, and I assume that
   this could be the cause.
 * I have a finger over the deactivation and deletion. I’d like to hear a second
   opinion.
 * Thanks in advance

 * This plugin should be able to stop spam comments… we’ve been using for years 
   now and not had a problem whatsoever with it. Very mature code in there. 🙂 Give
   it a shot and see how it works for you.

 * I have not noticed a problem. Perhaps best to leave this plugin. Useful as a 
   tandem with Shield WordPress Security plugin.
 * Regards,
