...block spam?

Earlier I posted in the German forum about a phenomena I can observe for several days.

I am getting continously spam comments, containing a short comment (varying content) and about 10 or more links. I do not use Live Preview, but Forced Preview, of course. Thanks to the plug-in mrw_spamkeywords_urlcount (version 0.1, is there any newer?) they are marked as spam and not published. They are not more than 10 to 15 a day, but they are annoying.

Is there any possibilities to block them completely depending on

  • containing HTML
  • Keywords
  • the number of URLs

or is there any other anti-spam measure in development out there?

Thx in advance

Re: ...block spam?

Maybe this is a solution, but I really hate captchas in comment forms.

Any other solution?

mrw_spamkeywords_urlcount does the job for me.

Re: ...block spam?

Yes, but this is not the point. This plugin does the same job for me, but:

I do not want to see comments with +5 urls to be marked as spam, I want them to be blocked, totally, without having to delete them from time to time.

Would mrw_spamkeywords_urlcount with this mod help?
