I have installed the latest version of the plugin (0.86) in Wordpress (2.1.3). I get the following error when I try to bind my OpenID with my user account in Wordpress:
Error: OpenID assertion failed: Server denied check_authentication
The plugin appears to have installed and configured correctly.
My OpenID works on your test site.
Here is the text from the plugin options report:

GMP does not appear to be built into PHP. This is highly recommended for performance reasons.

BCMath does not appear to be built into PHP. GMP is preferred.

The OpenID Library is operating Dumb Mode, since it doesn't have a big integer library. Recommend installing GMP support.

I updated to the latest SVN version (Rev 93 for MU) and I still get the error. I have used my OpenID (from protectnetwork.org) successfully on other sites so I know that it isn't a provider issue.
