I hate spam. I was doing ok without any spam filter for comment verification. I got a spam or two every day. Very manageable. However beginning this past saturday, I’ve gotten alot more, about 30 each day. That’s when I installed Peter’s Anti-Spam Image. At first I just turned it on just for comments, but this morning I got trackback spam. So I just turned in on for Trackbacks and Pings. I’m dissapointed that I had to this because, I like trackbacks. They are a great feature of the blogging community. Spammers suck!

I have also disabled trackbacks altogether on my blog. But I find pingbacks to be less susceptible to spam (knock on wood). If you really want to keep trackbacks, you could look for a trackback-specific spam filter (although I don’t know if any effective ones exist).
