Do you need a spam blocker?

I've tried so many spam blockers, but up until now thousands still pass through. Obviously, the more famous you are on the net, then the more blocks you'll need.

Well, I definitely don't own a PR9, but I still get a hundred each day.

So, here is the joyous little plugin for you to experiment with Anti Spam, yep that's it Anti-Spam!

It's true to its name; since installing it, I've had zero spam and you don't even need to use that horrid and useless captcha.

Can you believe it, it even surpasses Askimet, which is also useless in my opinion, all the same I still have it load just in case.

(UPDATE: I've now taken the plunge to delete Askimet. Anti Spam is still working great and zero spam since writing this blog)

You can download it and then upload it via the link or find it in your WordPress repository.

Happy days to you all!

Sharon thank you for sharing this information here in WA community!

Thanks for sharing this valuable information :)

Okay... Askimet is really letting a lot of spam filter into my comment directory. It is starting to spook me. I gotta try something else.

So you say this ANTI-SPAM is really good?

Really really good, I've got it on all my sites and now have zero spam. Others on WA have also told me they started using it with great success:)

Ask yourself "What have I got to lose?".

So far (3 months on) I find it much better than Akismet, plus Akismet is full of you know what I mean ...

I'm on it. Thanks. I've been really looking for a solution and you just confirmed it for me.

Hi there,

I am not sure if anybody knows of Donald Knuth and his work, he is just one of the founding fathers of modern programming as we know it.

This ANTI - SPAM is low profile but packs a mean punch to SPAM, if the developers of this plugin based their programming on this guy we are well covered, I tell you!

All the best and have a nice weekend.

On a good note- the more spam you get, the more you must be doing something right! LOL

You'd think so lol

Yes, spam comments are a nuisance. Thanks for yr kind tips and sharing, dearest Sharon. ;)

I'll have try this One. Thank you:)

Thank-you Sharon May, lovely.

YES Sharon! I NEED a spam blocker... for a about a month now, my sites have been getting hammered by very long spammy messages multiple times a day (one site in particular) - and I have Askimet installed...

Quick question - Do I need to un-install Askimet before installing this one?

I know you say that you keep Askimet 'loaded', just in case, but just to confirm - do you mean 'installed'?

Thanks for this,
Steve ;)

Yes installed and activated & btw I too was having those stupid long spammy messages on one site. I'd get hundreds in a day, this plugin cured it.

Awesome! Found your post at just the right time. Thanks :)

I do remember your blog about spammy comments, let me know if this helped or if you find another.

Well, I logged in today and BINGO! No spam! Works like a TREAT :)

Cure for all :) I'm so glad

Thanks Sharon, appreciate you sharing this. Thinking about changing my spam blocker, and this could just be the one. :)

It's very good, give it try at least.
