because on line 192 it says "var $akismetVersion = '1.1';" I don't know if this interferes with the change you made

Not sure if it has some low level effect on checking submissions with Akismet... But I made the change and it still picked up a potential spam after the change.

I'd love to hear from anyone who can confirm if there is some egative side effect of this change...

People ... do you even think what you are doing with this change. That efectively disables akismet checks in reality

Thank you! The page would time out on my shared hosting, couldn't even post a story with Akismet on.

What does this change actually do though?

[dojo]

Was getting a parse error .. something like missing '-' in one line.

I'll try this in some hours again at home and report the entire error, maybe I'm doing something wrong

replace this with

strToUpper($type)." /{$this-  >akismetVersion}/$path HTTP/1.0\r\n"

and that's it. How one character can make a world of difference.

Something to clarify. Is the . missing at the end?

replace with

strToUpper($type)." /{$this-  >akismetVersion}/$path HTTP/1.0\r\n"

or

strToUpper($type)." /{$this-  >akismetVersion}/$path HTTP/1.0\r\n" .

I did some research based on zeridon's feedback. I don't think changing to 1.0 causes a problem - look at:
PHP5 Akismet | Aching Brain
#{DefV}'s rant - Akismet Problems?
I've added the code change to my module. Eventually it'd be nice to see the library that is utilized by this module updated as well. There is now a PEAR module that is quite stable:
PEAR :: Package :: Services_Akismet
