Today I found a link from Project Honeypot to the http:BL plugin for WordPress that blocks various forms of crap - comment spam being a big deal here, as I somehow managed to accumulate over 108 thousand of the attempts on this no-name blog.

Yeesh. Thank god for Akismet.

So the plugin is running, please send me email if you see any problems from it. It’ll be interesting to see what it does to my visit stats, I suspect many of the ‘visitors’ are spam bots anyway.
