No spam in comments

This addon gives you possibility to fight with comment spam.

GeoS, I tried to post a comment on one of your images and it took me to a page that says "Different Security Keys!" I'm not sure what this means, but I'm assuming that it's not letting me post a comment. By the way, I'm not a spammer :)

Good begining - however for this to really work the original Pixelpost routine to save comments must be disabled.

Most of the SPAM these days is posted using bots who do not bother to really come to your site but just send the proper $_GET and $_POST fields to your blog url.

BTW I also got different security keys error

[GeoS]

hmmm
1) True, old comments code must be disabled. It would need hack for 1.5.
2) The most important part (I mean the most dynamic) of security keys are generated from Session ID. So if you have disabled cookies or SID is changing between image page and comments script then you can watch this error. When I was testing it yesterday it was working OK. Today I get new comment so it looks like a little random problem. Ill check it at evening.

As you see this is small step in work against SPAM in comments. Ill try to fix current issues and develop this addon to be more powerful but still I need your help to get info what works OK and what doesnt. As I had only 5 SPAM comments till today I cant test it in proper enviroment.

One more time thx for all comments. At weekend there should be next update.
