Damn blog spam

Well this weekend I was bombarded with blog spam. It all came from dozens of IPs with random text in the comment like "interesting blog" and what not. What's interesting is the URLs they put in their spam point to other blogs, so I don't know what they are doing.

Anyhow, I'm pretty fed up with it and now I'm not allowing any URLs at all in comments, sorry. You'll have to clear the Url field on any comment posts as well.

I switched to geeklog a few months ago , partly because of blogspam. I'm happy to report that I haven't had a single spam since I switched.

The posts are probably trying to increase the google rank of the other blogs but putting links in your blog.
