Annoying comment spammers

It’s bad enough I have to deal with a tidal wave of e-mail spam on a daily basis, but after the 4th round of deleting 20+ comments on my site all saying the same thing and having a link to a pornographic web site, I’m on the verge of simply disabling comments altogether. People really need to start carrying their own weight on the Internet instead of leeching from those people who pay for their e-mail accounts and web space. I don’t understand it — for some reason, people who wouldn’t ever think of walking into someone’s yard and putting up dozens of signs stating “Nice yard. Visit lolita-f***.com!” think nothing of posting comments on a web site doing basically the same thing. Jerks.

    The author said that it didn’t catch the lolita spam, but it looks promising.

    I believe I’ve got a solution now. Testing.
