Virus, Worm, Trojan Horse Contraception

I'm pretty irritated right now as I've had to delete close to 40 spam comments on my other blog Women of a Certain Age. I have received repetitive comments in the form of Oriental characters. I tried Blogger Help which is seldom helpful. I finally decided to go back to comment moderation in order to avoid this stuff altogether. I wouldn't want anyone to double click on spammed comment and get a virus, a worm, a trojan horse or whatever.

One of my favorite bloggers, Reya, has this to say:

"Butternut Squash of the blog Goddess at the Confluence (who knows Asian languages) tells me this spam is a Japanese porno ad. If you use certain words like "pink" for instance, the spam finds your blog.

After awhile they give up.

But - comment moderation is a good thing. Why not?"
