It is worth looking at your recommended plugin, so thanks for that. Spam comments can also be a problem on ordinary html sites that allow comments. I moved away from blogs at one time partly because of spam and bought into a private html template for future sites. That had a custom comment script. After a few months some porn merchant had cracked that open and comments had to be shut down. I have used Akismet in Blogs for a long time, but that now has a monthly fee.

Whatever you are using obviously does not work that well based on one of the previous comments... I am now using Block-Spam-By-Math on one of my Wordpress blogs and, for the time being, simply turning off comments on my other blog - sad but necessary.

I get that error message -- "Your location has been identified as part of a reported spam network. Comments have been disabled to prevent spam." -- when I try to post on particular sites. I'm NOT a spammer. Where is the problem? How can I post a comment? is it the site where I'm trying to post a comment, or is it something on MY system. Again, I'm not a spammer. I've never had this message before. I’m not sure if the WP-SpamFree plug-in isn’t an overkill and giving a false positive.
