As all webmasters and blog owners know, spam is an unbelievably annoying part of maintaining a website.  There are so many spammers all across the web that controlling and deleting it from your website or blog can be a very daunting task.  Well I have got a great recommendation for you if you are running a WordPress blog.

    Sure. Yes, I have found it to be better than Askimet. Askimet sometimes blocks valid comments.

    zplits,
    I am using Re-Captcha on this blog because I have no control over the plug-ins, all managed by Today.
