Comment spam round 7

TYPEPAD -- I attract fewer than 10 comment spammers a week while serving a minimum of 1000 page views a day here. That's bad news for other people who don't have industry-strength comment spam controls. With fragile defenses, they're getting to service my previous (around 15 a day) spam burden.

As many bloggers discover, you need filters on both comments and trackbacks.

I cannot imagine anything stronger than Typepad's anti-spam filter system.
