The Spam Battle
Spammers have figured out how to leave comments on blogs. They started doing this around October of last year. Soon thereafter, a program called MT-Blacklist came out to fight it. Every time we get spammed, we add that spam to the blacklist and MT-Blacklist blocks any similar messages from then on. Bloggers are working together on this and the list has grown. Only a fraction gets through but it is annoying when it does.
Every now and again, like a few nights ago, a few new ones will get through and you'll see just how many they send. Divasaurs was blistered the other night with spam (Over 100 comments). Some of the spammers left 19 comments each. Every time a spam message gets through and leaves a comment, the original author of the entry gets an email notification that someone has commented on their entry.
The blog has been cleaned up and I apologize to all of those who received spam messages. This is a never-ending battle.
Kevin ,
How is Mexico? I saw Lars , Kattie, and the Amister at Martha's B day party last week. Ben had made an all out humdinger for her.
I'm still looking for a job that doesn't seem to exsist. Gosh, I could really vent off about the "Bill" therory. Alot has happened these few weeks. The Gulf in this part of the world no longer hires divers. The majors prefer to keep paying extentions and applying for republican subsidies. enough said .. See You next month
