comment spam

Ugh. My blog comments were spammed while I was out of town this past week. The only way I’ve found to really prevent this from happening is to block all comments, which I do not want to do. Any other suggestions besides IP banning (which I’ve already done) will be very welcome.

    Well, as you catch up on your reading, I’m sure you’ll come across the new MT plug-in called Mt-Blacklist, but here’s a direct link: http://www.jayallen.org/journey/2003/10/mtblacklist_stop_spam_now

    The guy at SixDifferentWays commented on this very same thing two days ago. I just checked my feed reader now and both your entries appeared next to eachother, even under by date sort. Very strange indeed.

    I found another long-winded rant down the list with many comments by those who relate. It must be getting really bad this week. Everyone gets email spam, telemarketer calls, junk mail, junk faxes, and now comment spam. The world is coming to a direct marketing end.

    Irony: Getting comment spam on an entry about comment spam.

    Deleted and added to the blacklist.
