Can you please not use keywords as your name next time? thanks! And thanks for the comment - I somehow stick to askimet, myself. It works, so far. I guess if I ever get too overwhelmed by spam, I may start shopping for other methods. Had no idea that tally meant that… Can you please not use keywords as your name next time? thanks!

(Cleverer may not sound like a word, but it passed the spell checker lol). I've approved a few only to go back and spam them after seeing the exact same thing on 20 other blogs. This is one area where they are quite dumb; for some reason not realizing that bloggers group by niche. FYI - every now and again Akismet will catch mine by mistake, lease keep an eye out. :) .-= Dennis Edell´s last blog post ..<a href="http://www.directsaleswebmarketing.com/the-10-winner-and-more-good-news/">The $10 Winner And More Good News…..</a> =-.

It works pretty well. I don't get many regular comments, but I get a lot of comment spam. You can report spam that Mollom misses, so it gets smarter as you use it. There is a plugin for Wordpress.
