I renamed back to wordpress default. I have to rename the file to other name because the spambot just keep sending spam in split seconds, non-stop, similar to DOS attacks. That's why my whole site slows down, and I have the rename them so that it returns 404 to the spambot, and they will stop spamming, temporary. That's when I search for other anti-spam plugin, other than SK2 and Akismet. Nop. I renamed back to wordpress default.
