I had a bunch of it some while back and then it quieted down for quite a while but in the past week or two, it's been explosive. I cleared things out over the weekend but by now, I have something like 30 to clear up. This last round have all been to the same message number. I've got to look more closely at WordPress and see if I can block some I/P addresses. I know, they keep changing the address but a bunch of my previous spams came from the same IP address so it might be worth a try. I'm still using version 1.52 but would like to possible upgrade my WP scripts to see if there have been any improvements in the area of comment spam prevention. I sure wish these pricks would get a life. On Fri, Apr 27, 2007 at 09:57:34AM -0700, M. Taylor wrote: > I have the exact same problem. > > Yeah, it's terrible.
