blogspammed
Well, I guess it was inevitable. Yesterday, my blog got filled with spam. So I'll be trying to take some action to prevent this from happening again.
This kind of thing just hacks me off. People just don't give a !#$% about misusing other people's efforts and resources to try and make a dime off of all of this online black-market crap.
Spam will eventually kill the internet as we know it. There's no doubt about it.

Check out MT-blacklist and the update to MoveableType. Additionally, D over at Centralmx.com has some good comment additions.

This worked for me. No spam since the day I installed it (although I'm planning on adding Mt-Blacklist for even more security). Just a suggestion that I haven't seen tried, but it works.
