 * This used to be absolutely great plugin, we have used it plenty of client sites
   which we keep automatically updated.
 * However after version 4.0 and greater, we just keep getting more and more dissappointed
   by this plugin. It seemingly keeps deactivating itself (for no reason..) after
   each update, making it allowing sending of spam through our contact forms.

 * v3 to v4 was a complete rewrite which is expected the plugin deactivates grading
   from there. After updating to v4, that should no longer happen. Me & a few other
   testers have been unable to reproduce it deactivating over and over after new
   updates. If you can provide more details, I’d be happy to look into it (i.e. 
   what version are you currently running, when/where does this happen, how are 
   you upgrading, etc.)
 * The more details the better so I can reproduce & fix. Otherwise, it’s like taking
   your car to the shop saying there’s a weird sound, but when you get it there,
   nothing happens. Can’t fix what I can’t reproduce.
