I'm pretty relaxed about it too, I hope the server comes up again, but I'd rather it was a server down issue than that the spammers had found a way around Akismet - that would be awful!!! <br><br>thanks for the speedy reply Richard ;)

<font size="3">The Akisment server is down. In my application (not WP blog)
I'm using a modified version of the PHP4 class that gives me an error
status whenever Akismet doesn't respond. And I've been seeing no connects
for some number of hours now. <br><br>
Doesn't bother me though. If my application can't connect with Akismet
the comment goes into a moderation queue. <br><br>

Just wondering if there's a problem with the server or a sudden influx of
clever spammers because I've been hammered today - when normally I get to
live in blissful ignorance.<br><br>
