Kevin, No I never got that far. I am trying to install askismet. What I need to know is whether or not I need to set up a new account. I already have a blog on WordPress and I am trying to install that plugin into my existing blog.
Mikey, I followed your instructions and get the followng message where the API key should be
“Akismet is almost ready. You must enter your WordPress.com API key for it to work.”
