If there's one thing worse than receiving a daily dose of spam email, it's finding your blog littered with spam comments.
Not only is your letter box getting stuffed full of unwanted junk, but they're now coming in at night and spraying graffiti over the furniture.
You can remove it and ban the IP addresses one by one, but it takes time...
Anyone know a good solution?
Posted by Eurodan at August 4, 2004 2:16 PMTry MTBlacklist.

Posted by: Shyboy at August 4, 2004 3:03 PMSeconded. You will ideally want to use it in combination with one of the scripts for regularly updating the blacklist - several are linked from the MT Blacklist home site.

Posted by: Eurodan at August 4, 2004 4:15 PMAs the solution was already suggested, let me just express my sympathy for your situation. My blog was thus defaced as well.
I guess that's what we get for using a popular piece of software such as Movable Type.
Spamming blogs, ads above the urinal, what will they think of next?

Posted by: matt at August 5, 2004 7:14 PMYes, it's really rather poignant.
