 * Hi there. I’ve been using this plugin for a while with no problems at all. Now,
   all of a sudden, I’m getting the following error message: “Notice: Use of undefined
   constant WPSS_HASH – assumed ‘WPSS_HASH’ in/hermes/bosoraweb120/b475/ipg.tmersh/
   wp-content/plugins/sp-spamshield/wp-spamshield.php on line 5347”
 * Since it specifies this plugin, I assumed it was the problem child, but I still
   double checked to make sure. I uninstalled it & then re-installed, but the problem
   persisted. I also cleared my cache & re-started the browser, but again to no 
   avail. I am very reluctant to leave it deactivated since I was inundated by spam
   before I installed this plugin, and it says it should be compatible with my version
   of WP. As of now, anyone visiting my site will see this error message at the 
   top of the page. I hope you can help!!
