Spam frenzy

The last two weeks or so, my blog has been hit by a wave of comment spam. Every morning there are 20-something comments like ‘Nice’ or ‘Sorry :(’ to be deleted. Fairly pointless posts… The only link they contain seems to be in the URL field, and not in the message like they used to. Do they really think a blogger would see that kind of rubbish as a serious comment?

I recall Dennis posting something about filtering out one-word-comments, but I can’t find the exact post. Maybe I’ll just have to try playing with the spam score setting for marking comments as spam…
