 * Hi Dmitry,
 * WP-SpamShield does not block PHP sessions…and it does use PHP sessions. While
   not common, there may be a conflict with one of your other plugins that we need
   to look into.
 * Please submit a support request at the [WP-SpamShield Support Form](http://www.redsandmarketing.com/plugins/wp-spamshield/support/)
   so we can look into it further for you. That is our main support venue, and we
   have an excellent and thorough diagnostic process to solve these issues.
