You are right. The CAPTCHA I used was simple. But now I am now experimenting with some anti-spam plugins. I hope they help.

Talking about CAPTCHA for Comments, I personally think that Keeping a tough Captcha diccourages people from comment on Blogs!
I often dont comment on Blogs which have a confusing CAPTCHA image.
But a small image is a must which will stop different scripts from publishing SPAM comments on the Blogs.

I'm not really sure why I got so many spam comments. I guess that my blog got entered on a spam list of some sorts, and was continuously spammed from that. Austinâ€™s last blog post: Learning Methods

Guys, I have around 7000 spam comments in Aksimet folder but I don't bother checking it. Never checked it cause I know spammers will spam so no use wasting time because the rate of spam comments is too high and frankly I don't have that much time sitting to check. Before I had no captcha, no Aksimet installed and I still did not get spam comments, I used to but they went into awaiting moderation. After I moved to WP 2.7.1 then comment moderation did not work so installed Aksimet. So you guys should be happy if your getting spam, the more spam you get, it shows the more succesful your site is. For e.g John Chow gets more then 1000 spam comments daily, thats 30000+ a day. So isint it a good thing, LOL. Sorry for the backward thinking!
