For no reason Comment spam in Wordpress …other than a try-out and also the current anti-spam plugins miss the odd bit of comment spam, I’ve now switched off TanTanNoodles’ Spam filter and am giving WP-SpamFree another try plus another plugin, AVH. I’ve left Akismet running regardless. WP-SpamFreeThis now promises a lot, so it’s worth another shot. Two years ago when I tried it, it had interactions with various other plugins, so I dropped it. Since that time, the whole WordPress code has improved tremendously, as anyone who now uses it will know. Visit plugin site AVH First Defense Against Spam Mailwasher Pro This is a new one for me. It uses the external databases of known spammers and their IP addresses as a blocking filter. This is similar to anti-spam email programs like Mailwasher Pro that I use, so it seems to be “a good thing”. This feature is optional, but it’s the most attractive part, IMHO. It uses either or both of these two services for which an API key is needed. The key is free in each case.
Now it’s a case of “wait and see”. Visit plugin site Amazon Related:
Related Posts by TagsIntroductionSome time ago I tried out Flickr, ultimately deciding to host my own pictures on-site. I don’t the idea of someone having MY picture resource at THEIR beck and call…  Freeman Dyson and Martin Rees Whatever. FlickrHQ sent me an email today (from “The Flickreenos” by gad!) introducing me to something they call,
As they say,
How exciting indeed. A bit like photo tagging in Facebook….. Surely Shome Misstake? Me! Anyway, check out the photo (above), and you’ll see that the ‘Martin Rees’ referred to in the photo is sat next to one of my heroes, Freeman Dyson, and is none other than the former Cambridge Physics professor and now Astronomer Royal, Martin Rees. Not me. ConclusionSo you see, my lack of faith in Flickr is totally justified! Original Flickr link: http://www.flickr.com/photos/zippy/1023925406/ Possibly Related Sites

I’ve Been Comment Spammed by Kevin Hoeffer! Posted on 10:58, December 1st, 2009 by StrangelyYup! It’s true.Apparently, the only way that PWW et al can now made any headway is by asking inane questions on the very websites that are trying to close them down!!! Comment Spam from Kevin HoefferThis is the content of a comment added to an old post I made on this website about the late, great and psychotic murderer, Joe Meek. Look, laugh and learn! I’ve copied it verbatim as any WordPress using webmaster would have seen it. Just bask in those spelling mistakes and the deep, deep irony of the comment content!
As you can see, “Kevin” (let’s call him that, but we all know by now that this is all a complete charade, don’t we? Well I hope we do!) has left his URL in th required field. This is standard WordPress stuff to increase everyone’s SEO status. So let’s visit it, shall we? Let’s see if Kevin really does find it hard to find information about Google and Making Money Online! http://kevinblogsite.org Kevin Hoeffer - My Work At Home Failures and Success Well bugger me! It’s a different Kevin to the last one! And guess what, he’s trying to sell me information on how to make money online using Google! Shurely shome misstake? (and don’t call me Shirley) Kevin’s dismal audio is a bit different to the previous incarnation back in April when I posted about Google Treasure Chest. There are no jokey references to (drum roll) pipe manufacturing companies this time, no siree! This time, Kevin actually claims that he’s been scammed for $2000! He then goes on to say that the only legitimate way to make money that he’s found is with “Google Easy Cash Kit” The link for this “opportunity” is:
For the UK, the offer isn’t available to us, so we are helpfully redirected to another money making scheme:
For the USA, the site was down when I looked, but you are sent to:
…which is also non-functional! Concluding ObservationsKevin’s is much like all the others we are sick of seeing. The T&Cs are getting less and less informative and in size. There are no contacts and it follows all the usual patterns of $1.90-ish shipping costs, the “as seen on” banners, the “comments are closed due to spam” bit, the chequebook artwork, the huge cheques from Google artworks, the happy, smiley family. You name it. It’s all there. What is weird is that they’ve bothered trying to comment spam me! I mean…. ME! Are they stupid? I can’t wait until they do Paul at WorkAtHomeTruth.com! Now that will be fun! I think I’ll leave the annoying comment in the post – just to pad it out, you understand? No URLs though, ha ha! Amazon Related:
