http://www.homelandstupidity.us/software/bad-behavior/

The combination of these two stop 99.9% of my comment spams. See the footer at the bottom of my website to see how many spams SK2 stops. I get spammed quite a bit.

It’d be easier to switch on moderation or keyword moderation for each comment rather than have the pallava of registration and authentication codes for commentors. I have certain keywords tagged to go to moderation only and some email domains (sorry hotmail users) flagged for moderation too and that seems to work well for me so far.
