Now I’ve (virtually) solved my Comment Spam issue, I’ll look into trackback Spam.
Note to self: look at Trackback Validator Plugin over on Trackback Spam Resources.
That whole site looks pretty good, too.

I need to see why Blogsome isn’t notifying readers when their comments are moderated.
Apparently (according to the Codex) this is just a line or two of code. It would be nice to make a system wide change, but I’ll start with just a notification in my blog template.
I think my simple catchpa is working quite well. I’ve only had one comment through that was Spam, and that was actually a trackback, not a comment. Ditto for comments in moderation.
However, I haven’t had too many ‘real’ comments in the last few days, either. I hope there aren’t people who are trying to comment but cannot. I don’t think so, since I seem to be able to comment fine, from IE and Firefox.
Love to hear from anyone using this method.
