    If you want to skip using a plugin, you can also delete the rel="external nofollow" from the comments template file.

    That's how I do it because you can also add a title attribute to the links so that your site will validate properly.

    I use the following plugin.
    Nofollow Case by Case
    It lets me decide whether I want to make a comment do follow or not.
    Guess I am a bit of a control freak.
