Someone using the e-mail address cnpocketbikes(at)yahoo.com has tried to post a comment on my site that was a full html advert for some kids micro scooters. It is essentially a site map of burningcar(dot)net sitting inside a double column table that would have broken my page layout. \n\nComments on my site are, like commenting systems on most sites, here for people to add to conversations about the topic in question - not to benefit some chavs attempt to a make a few more shekels by boosting his Google rating. Yes we know what you are up to. \n\nThese spammers really have no idea of the annoyance they cause and I suspect they really don't care. \n\nUpdate!\n\nSuddenly I am getting a plethora of spam comments as the little spotty geek dweebs discover my MT comments path. Ah well.\n\nThe latest annoyances are for a VIAGRA-PRESCRIPTION site registered with the dubious email of 9126439.fly(at)spamfly.com and what's really annoying is that they wrote \"Yours is a great blog. I have found the best site to:\" and then listed loads of Viagra sites.\n\nand REGISTERXONLINE owned by shop_get_buy(at)yahoo.com \n\nAnd yes I am having a go at the domains even if it is not the owners who are spamming my site because they are encouraging this spam abuse activity to help their sites get better rankings. It won't take much for Google to put a filter in discounting any links in comments but until that time we are stuck with clearing out the spam comments. \n\nThe funny thing is that I have comment approval switched on so the   \nspam won't ever make it onto my site - not for even 1 second.",
