Blog Spam (part deux)
The last couple of weeks my blog was under some sort of spam attack. I got about 50 to 80 spam comments a day. Thankfully, Askimet intercepted 99% of those messages. But Askimet shouldn’t be getting these messages, because my captcha plugin should keep them out… well, it didn’t.
Yesterday, I found Wordpress Hashcash. A plugin which uses crypto to keep automated spammers away. So far it’s working.
UPDATE: ever since I installed WP-Hashcash it has been awfully quiet on the spamming front 
Never mind… Thankfully Askimet is catching them all (50 per day at this moment)
