Comment spam, part II
Another small rash of comment spam happened today. Somebody posting from two different IP addresses posted 16 ads for a Viagra substitute called Cialis, advertised as producing a 36-hour erection.
I've not tracked the IP addresses, but my guess is that the IP banning in Movable Type is not going to cut it. Like most of us, my IP address at home, for example, changes every time I get a connection. Movable Type lets you ban individual addresses.
Perhaps I should try MT-Blacklist?
Movable Type, by the way, has an editor for handling multiple entries at once, but I don't see one for selecting and deleting multiple comments. Were they waiting to put that in the paid license version?
