Hello,

At my photoblog (hyperlink in signature) I'm using the 'Anti-Comment-Spam-Addon V 1.0.2' but I'm still having spam troubles. These are some of the spamposts from my blog:

Very good site. Thanks!!!

The author also fills in the 'website' field, with a spamlink. The comments are posted from various IPs (65.219.2.110, 202.93.36.60, 61.120.200.163, 61.120.200.163, 62.253.0.10 etc.).
The GDLib code works fine, I don't know what to do?!
I don't want to moderate the comments, is there an other option against spam?

GDlib has nothing to do with this, GDlib is a library for manipulating graphics

you can stop these IP adresses
you could use Akismet, you could use Referrer-Karma, you could use .htaccess

but the first of all:

which PP version are you using? I doubt you use PP 1.5

Oh, I thougt the image with the code from the Anti Comment Spam Addon was done with GDLib.. Never mind :)
The things I've done:

- Anti-Comment-Spam-Addon V 1.0.2
- Akismet (installed a few seconds ago

I hope these two 'addons' will stop the spam. But if they doesn't, is there a third thing I can use in combination with those two?

yes, that image is done with GDlib, but as these stops are connotated with CAPTCHA, GDLIB might be misleading ;=)

you ask us as if we would know the perfect way to stop SPAM
if we did so, we would not be spam victims as well...
