    Another vote for Akismet here.

    Most of my WP sites are dofollow, and I use Akismet on all of them.

    I like Akismet's pretty stats page of all the losers who think they're getting a backlink :p

    Akismet is one plugin that does this job, really well. I have been at peace with such spam comments as Akismet does the filtering work really well and I just have to press a single button to delete the thrash..all in one go! :)

    akismet... i get about 100/spams a day, never delete them or empty the spam bin, akismet dumps them after 30 days anyway. this says it all:

    30,249 spams caught, 3,432 legitimate comments, and an overall accuracy rate of 99.801%.

    Best advice. Akismet is good indeed. And on some of my blogs I have disabled comments.
