    Hi! I made a site in wordpress.org with host and co.cc domain. The host is byethost.com .So, I want to activate Akismet Plug-in in wordpress.org, I sign up on akismet.com and I have the API key. Now I can’t enter that key because,on bottom of the page, it says: Unable to reach any Akismet servers.

    “A network problem or firewall is blocking all connections from your web server to Akismet.com. Akismet cannot work correctly until this is fixed. Please contact your web host or firewall administrator and give them this information about Akismet and firewalls.”

    I don’t know what to do ? Please, can anyone help me ? I try everything :(
