  I’ve a blog at http://www.bddownload.biz.nf/wordpress
  I tried to install “Stats” plugin but it wanted my API key. I gave my API key & plugin said:

  “Error from last API Key attempt:
  Your blog was unable to connect to WordPress.com. Please ask your host for help. (transport error – could not open socket: )”

  What to do? Same problem when I tried to install “Akismet” plugin !

  Go into your browser and make sure that it is set to accept third party cookies. That is one thing. Also, you might have to choose the option to “replace an existing blog” when you activate the plugin.

  I just went through all this and I’m not sure what I actually did to get it working, but it finally did begin working for me.
