I installed the plug-in you suggest above and since I use both JsKit and Disqus for comments and an anti-scraping plu-in as well I should be well protected. As such I don't mind others copying my work as long as they give credit where credit is due. Spamming me so far has only been a minor annoyance and disappointment when an e-mail is received about new comments that turn out to be useless.I get enough of that on my own forum.I don't need it for my blog. Besides,I don't see the point.Readers know if a comment is spam or of no value.Secondly,search engine algorithms soon recognize such useless backlinks as zero value also. .-= Bill Vlasak´s last blog ..<a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/affiliate-bookmarks/NpTg/~3/hWBJPN9nKwQ/" rel="nofollow">Make The Most of Your Article Marketing</a> =-.

I am going to look into your post as well and see what I can do to combat scrapers. The worst thing is that I have found people taking even my poetry and passing it off as their own - not only no permission, but no link, no credit, straight plagiarism! Not sure if it is scraped or just manually stolen though :) @ Jesse – Hi, thanks! I am going to look into your post as well and see what I can do to combat scrapers.

I absolutely hate spam in any form, automated or manual. There are many new ways to get past spam filters that pop up almost daily. I wrote a post a while back outlining how to take a proactive approach to block them before they even get to see your site, it also is effective at blocking scrapers and content harvesters as well.
