WordPress’s spam filters are doing a great job keeping it out of the blogs, but I’ve been hit with about 5,000 spam comments in the last week. Just keeping the filters clear is a problem (which I try to do because good posts frequently get caught in the spam filters).
The posts consist of nothing but phrases linked to a site that obviously is not what it purports to be in the links.
Almost all of it comes from this computer: 94.102.49.76
Can anyone stop the spam?

Come on in, the water's fine. Come often: Cleanliness is next to godliness.

Retired teacher of law, economics, history, AP government, psychology and science. Former speechwriter, press guy and legislative aide in U.S. Senate. Former Department of Education. Former airline real estate, telecom towers, Big 6 (that old!) consultant. Lab and field research in air pollution control. My blog, Millard Fillmore's Bathtub, is a continuing experiment to test how to use blogs to improve and speed up learning processes for students, perhaps by making some of the courses actually interesting. It is a blog for teachers, to see if we can use blogs. It is for people interested in social studies and social studies education, to see if we can learn to get it right. It's a blog for science fans, to promote good science and good science policy. It's a blog for people interested in good government and how to achieve it. BS in Mass Communication, University of Utah Graduate study in Rhetoric and Speech Communication, University of Arizona JD from the National Law Center, George Washington University
