Running a blog makes my life easier. No longer do I have to hand code all the html for each page, rather, I simply type into an application on my pc and it sends the post up. It also allows for people like you to post comments on the page, telling me what you do and don’t like.

Unfortuantely… spammers come along and blast you in your comments section with links to porn, viagra, and all the other usless crap.

Today, I had to remove 35 comments left by a spammer. All of them point to porn.

Luckily, I have MT-Blacklist installed on my site. If you run movable type 2.6 or higher… you need this!

You’ll also need the latest and greatest list of known spammers. You can find mine here (and it’s currently about as updated as it can get).

MT-Blacklist will stop posts containing anything found in it’s list from making it to your website, and adding new filter words is easy. If you run MT, get it today!
