…Clueless

The spam bots have waged a war on my poor blog.

Everyday, at least 50 comments are held for moderation and all of them advertise viagra or similar drugs.

So now I’m using three tools to protect my blog

• Akismet
• Bad Behavior
• Did You Pass Math?

I had installed Spam Karma 2 also but it didn’t let any comment through.

50 useless comments is still small but I don’t wanna take chances.

The Melting Pot faced it first attack from a spam bot. So, even it has all the three plugins installed.

Out of them, I find Did You Pass Math? to be the coolest. It asks the commentor to give the answer to a simple math addition problem before they can post. Sorta like captcha.
