Other that re-upgrading.
In the screen
Control Panel » Primary Settings Tab Stop forum spam.
Enable Stop Forum Spam should be checked
then the test link should work
it should show "can connect"
if that fails you can't go any further.
Spam Protection Level:
Manual with 1-click check should be checked for minimal without a SFS key.
BTW, were you using the mod prior to upgrading?
I still think you need to send a PM to SFS to check your board IP. You can't check it yourself only they can to see if they banned you for abuse. Using the feature not meaning banned due to being a spammer
