 * Hi, I tried to activate this plugin after a fresh install of WP, and received
   this message:
 * Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
    Parse error:
   syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in …/plugins/easy-peasy-mailchimp-ajax-form/
   includes/MailChimp.php on line 3
 * How can I resolve this issue?
    Thanks

 * Also, the error would appear only when you’ve downloaded an earlier version of
   the plugin, which you shouldn’t be downloading anyways, since the latest stable
   version of the plugin blocks activation on hosts with outdated php versions.

 * I’m using Easy Peasy Version 1.0.4, is that the latest?
 * I upgraded PHP from 5.2 to 5.4 and it worked! Thank you so much for the quick
   response!
