Get off Spammers!

I wrote about comment spam I was getting on my blogs a while ago. I didn’t bother to do anything about it, but last week it just went out of hands.
I used to get about 250 spam comments everyday on both mehtanirav and TrustAndFreedom. The Magnet blog also gets lot of spam.
I didn’t want to install a Captcha on the blog as the server does not have GD support. And I fould WP-HashCash. It’s pretty simple to setup, does not require GD, and is 100% effective! I did not have any spam for the last three days!
I strongly recommend HashCash for anybody using WordPress!
