    I get about 20 of those a day. Usually, they all come from the same 2 or 3 IP's so you can IP block them from your domain.

    It doesn't cost them anything (may be some bandwidth) to send out comment spam. And some blog auto approve comment. So, why not:D?

    One guy tried to put the same exact comment on every post of mine in both blogs I run. It said something like, that's exactly what I thought when I read the topic.

    btw, marymary you 've just gave them two link :D

    just got another spam comment
    Well, if Britney Spears on a stripper pole wasn’t enough to meet your daily vomit-inducing quota, here’s Britney Spears’ ass in a thong, very happily displayed to the camera. Don’t ask why, just accept that Britney has passed any and all limits of decency, and is just trying to get attention however she can.

    You may have also noticed that Britney Spears’ ass looks rather large, when compared to her two friends, one of whom is a large Black man, who for some reason is also wearing a thong (with a butterfly on it). Maybe he’s Britney’s new stylist, which, judging by her outfits lately, would seem to be a very reasonable assumption.

    That's a good one, did you write that yourself or pay someone to write it for you?

    I get these ones on lots of posts on my business-related blogs. They're beyond obnoxious.

    Actually, yesterday I think was the first day I saw the one from your first post. I got like 10 or so between last night and today so far on various blogs.

    Do you manually approve all of your comments?

    For several of them, yes. On my business one I get anywhere from a few dozen to a few hundred spam comments a day, so I just let Akismet deal with them.

    But for the smaller blogs, I prefer having it run by me for now. Otherwise, I forget to check and respond to things. If they get too bad on an individual basis, I'll move them over to Akismet too.

    I have another weird one where I have WP installed, but haven't added a theme or content or launched it technically yet. I have someone who goes there a few times a day posting the comment "test" over and over like an idiot.

    Try the aksmet plugin - it catches most of my spam comments. :)

    Hey,
    I liked the britney blog, and maybe it was a bit on topic with the need for diet :)

    However, I didn't agree with the racial undertone :eek:

    I wouldn't want you to give them a free link, just curious as to where that britney butt story linked to. lol. :p

    Well, good luck in deleting all your stuff Mary, I KNOW it is annoying :(.
