Suddent Spam- Akismet, Defensio, etc not working

[mikekim]

I'm currently using pixelpost 1.7.1, and for a year and a half of using PP I had never received a single spam comment. However, recently, I turned on the Pixelpost Anti-Spam add-on just because I was curious. Since then, I've been receiving over 15 spam comments everyday. Akismet and Defensio (used separately) seem to do NOTHING at all, as well as the Pixelpost Anti-Spam add-on. What went wrong?

Akismet and Defensio are learning filters. They need to learn.

Thanks, I'll try them for a while and see what happens!
