hi from [different name] amazing page see a later tomorrow or never

the name changes and the url reflects the name but leads to porn sites. I've been getting these comments everyday on my old entries and I have to keep deleting them like every 5 minutes. I even block the IP addresses but the IP changes too...what could be causing this? huh.gif

Topic moved out of the Bug Report Forum, because well, it's not a bug. Please try to stick your topic in the most appropriate place. Thanks. smile.gif

LOL maddy I looked at all the forums and thought that was the best fit. I thought my MT had some sort of bug.

They probably have a dial up connection where in their IP address wouldn't be static so their IP address will always be changing.

Like charle97 suggested try out mt-blacklist (if only I could figure out how to block the spammers on my site using that plugin).

Why would the type of comments that are posted to MT by visitors be a bug?

BTW, if you do a search of the forums on comment spam, you'll find a whole lot of results. This has been a major problem since at least October 2003.

I thought it was a bug or virus almu because every since I updated to 2.66 i've noticed it and since the messages are the same, i thought it was some type of MT virus since I dont get those comments in my guestbook or anywhere else on my site.

I also found this --> here
so now i have options smile.gif
thanks everyone!
