I was writing about the challenge plugin for WordPress a few days back in my other blog. I used it in all of my blogs and it deed reduce the number of spam comments reaching the comment box. But it could not stop all the comment spams and I was still receiving many spams everyday. Then I tried the Bad Behavior plugin in a few of my blogs to try it out. I like the initial results and the number of spam comments were reduced to a much greater extend. But I am still getting a few spam comments everyday.

I found a few other Anti-spam plugin the other day while I was browsing for some cool wordpress tips. Any I am going to try them as well on few of my blogs and will see if they work out fine. But I am satisfied with the result from using Bad Behavior. But I saw that I started getting some errors while I was trying to delete comments or moderate them. So, maybe I will look into this matter as well.

Well, spam is one of the weirdest things in the internet today. There are spam bots for everything these days. Even forums are being spammed with so many spam bots and the number of such cases are increasing each day. This thing called spam is not going to stop by itself, we have to fight them. Thanks to the great guys who are creating anti-spam software and plugins and releasing them for free. We should contribute to their effort by donation a few bucks so that it may help us all in fighting the war against spam.
