 * Hello, [@dreamjobsure](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dreamjobsure/).
 * Please, do the following:
    • WordPress Admin Page —> Settings —> Anti-Spam by
   CleanTalk —> Advanced settings —> set the option “Complete Deactivation” to “
   On” —> Save Changes; • WordPress Admin Page —> Plugins —> Installed plugins —
   > Anti-Spam by CleanTalk —> Deactivate and Activate again.
 * Then synchronize the plugin:
    • WordPress Admin Page —> Settings —> Anti-Spam
   by CleanTalk —> press the button “Synchronize with Cloud”
 * Did it help?

 * Hello,
 * What plugin do you have issues with: Anti-Spam or Security? If Security then 
   you should do the same for it:
 * • WordPress Admin Page —> Settings —> Security by CleanTalk —> General settings
   tab —> set the option “Complete Deactivation” to “On” —> Save Changes;
    • WordPress
   Admin Page —> Plugins —> Installed plugins —> Security by CleanTalk —> Deactivate
   and Activate again.

 * This issue is still not resolved, I have done the settings as per your suggestions
   in Anti-Spam and Security both plugins.
    I am still getting this page while accessing
   my website.
