If you have installed 1.8.2, I can't imagine that you have to mutch spam.

the 1.8.x serious are real spam-killers..; Try them..

If you have installed and are using 1.8.2, then you can come back

Hello and thanks for your reply.

I'm not using the 1.82 version, I'll try it, thanks.

For now, I'm using the 1.81. About spam, it's a lot for me (something like 10 or 20 messages everyday. Some other days, none...).

im using that version
and its pretty good against spam
but
all days u have like 700 more new trackbacks to confirm
and the spam words doesnt have more that 4 words
so its hard to erase all
today i erase 12.000 trackbaks that were spam :S

Why do you use trackback ???
Do you have valid trackbacks ?

Valid trackbacks? I am having this same issue with trackback spam and from what I have seen there are no options to check if its a valid trackback

Using the basic_antispam plugin allows checking if the trackback really is a clip from a web that links you, but I think spammers figured that out and simply fake the credentials.

I think what Topanga meant was "do you get trackbacks that are real trackbacks from real people doing a trackback?". If you're not getting those then why not just disable trackbacks via your 'Blog settings' tab in your back office?

Ahhh ok, I have just disabled the trackbacks. Personally I don't get much traffic and I don't really expect much. But it would be nice to have this feature activated if there was a way to block all these spambots.
