Update: I don’t know what the problem is, but now visitors get an Error 400 and nobody can post a comment anymore. Maybe it was an update from Wordpress? It is sad, the plugin was really great… Zero spam immediately after installing it – this is awesome! Thank you for the great plugin!

This is the best ultra-simple (and free) way to stop comment spam, thanks to the method it uses. Alternative effective solutions are more complicated and involve webserver configuration or WAF and CAPTCHA services. Other plugins simply fail to address the root cause of comment spam. This is the one to use.

This plugin returns an email warning from Wordpress as not being secure and blocks access to login page. It produces a fatal error. I’ve edited this review to reflect the support provided and may look into this plugin again in the future if needed to test again.
