More spam observations

Since we moved, I think we may have picked up some more address harvesters—or maybe the blocks of IPs I banned via .htaccess at the other place were keeping them out. Anyway, I am a little surprised that address at example.org is getting spam (not really example.org, but you get my point), while otheraddress at example dot org is not. I had thought the harvesters were smart enough to see through “dot”, but so far they are demonstrating that they are not. It’s still early days, of course; we haven’t even had our first comment spam attempt.

    As if on cue, we had our first comment spam attempt today. So far, I’m digging Akismet and WordPress.
