Yesterday I cleaned out a load of comment spam… and I just had to clean out another load. 25 in under 24 hours :( This is getting out of control, and it’s happening on the forums too with spam account signups.
I’ve found this thing called babycart which lets you interface SpamAssassin with WordPress to mark comments automatically for moderation based on their spammyness. This has the advantage of also using the URI testing in association with SpamCop.
I might install it later, and I might set it to refuse comments that are too spammy too.
