    Well, first you could try searching these forums for the word, “spam”. But, it’s late, and I’ll just point you in the right direction. https://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/spam/

    boxers_almighty – I suggest you to look at this address where a similar problem is treated:

    No, it’s not similar to that. He just plain and simple comment spam, like all of us, and needs to install an anti-spam measure from here: https://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/spam/

    This was a thread that was as close to my new problem as I could find. It looks like some clever SPAMMER has found a way around the default WP comment moderation or blacklist <options/ Discussions/ comment moderations>. It seems they have found a way of setting up a “link” in the comment field that WP does not recognizes as a prohibited word and posts the intended SPAM name in the comment field once its posted. Yesterday was my first one and I just had another now.

    What is unusual about these two comments was that they were posted on post that were less than 2 weeks old and contain new scrip in the comment field. Below was my reply E mail with the offending scrip.

    This is a great web site. I have some great web pages myself if you are interested to share. But I should not go on about my site too much, that is not fair, right?

    I have added the “&” symbol to see if that takes care of it. Anyone have any thoughts to ridding this method of SPAMMING?

    Unbelievable! Even when I cut and paste the “code” that the SPAMMERS used in this new method, here on the forum, it still comes up as the SPAM name intended? I won’t do that again.

    I thinks Jeff’s comment fix works fine.

    If it is a SPAM BOT that is doing it?
