Weblog Spam
Last night this humble website was besieged with about 50 comments originating from the same IP address. The comments, usually trite catchphrases like "buildings burn, people die, but real love is forever" or quotes from famous people, all pointed towards a single website that, judging from its domain name, seems to be a purveyor of kiddie porn.
I managed to delete all of them and ban the IP address from commenting again, but that won't stop the next enterprising pornographer from adopting a similar tactic. Does anyone have any suggestions for keeping the spam in my inbox and out of my weblog?

Chris, I have a tool installed that's supposed to catch spam like this. If you get some in the future, don't just delete it. First let me know and I can add it to the database, then I can use the tool to delete all of them.

I'm hurt - nobody ever posts kiddieporn to MY weblog.
