Sigh....
All I can figure is it's one of those "earn millions without ever leaving your home" schemes...I've been noticing that the latest trend in comment spam is for sombody to use a real-sounding name and a real-sounding comment, but the url they leave is some commercial site. I've been adding the urls to our blacklist, but that still leaves the comments in blogs other than mine own...
Stoopid Google....

Pixy? Hows this for a Minx feature? Within the comment alert email, include links to delete the comment and / or blacklist the sender without even having to faff about with the UI? Whadda you think?
Posted by: rob at January 9, 2004 01:42 PMDoh! I left a comment here, but I included and example of some comment spam and MT Blacklist ate it. 
So, in a word, yes.
