Well, I got totally fed up with comment spam on my blog. I was getting upwards to 20-30 emails a day asking me to moderate/approve a comment. 99% of those were spam.
So, I installed Spam Karma 2. A word of advice - DON’T run the filters on your already approved comments. Don’t! Somehow, I originally had 98 approved comments. Now I have 280+, and of course most of them are spam. crap.
I’ll be working to clean this mess over the next few days..
Update (few hours later): Ok, all of this is resolved. Spam Karma 2 seems to be working fine. Will observe it this week.

Someone else below asked this already about antispam scripts.
I am getting nailed with Spam on my website mails and in our blog website - now its offline too
much spam. Is there anyway to stop this? If not, there really isn’t any point in leaving it up
and active. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for help, Keep up the good work. Greetings from Poland
