WordPress MU

Just wondering if anyone has any updates on stopping blog spam. Let me know. Thanks.

well, you could incorporate a captcha, I tried that but it seems to work only with php 5.0 ... it was a plugin from patrick do a search for it

I just noticed you already found the thread: http://mu.wordpress.org/forums/topic.php?id=2837&replies=12

wher this is currently being discussed, why open another thread?

The captcha "plugin" isn't that "tough" to solve. A decent bot could read it.

Either that or hit it enough until it gets through.

Because nobody answered how to solve the problem. I still don't know how to install the captcha for example. But I guess if it wasn't answered there then nobody knows how to do it. Correct?

I don't know if it has been recommended already, but I see this as the number 1 feature to be implemented next.

Beats me, never used it.

I wrote my own.

and go try out this captcha if you are using php5: http://mu.bloggles.info/2006/12/14/wpmu-captcha-for-registration/

Gives me an excuse to look over what's occured with the last 24 hours and see what folks are blogging about anyway.

Thanks, Ovidiu!
