Sorry, but I get ridiculous amount of spam with multiply links and it’s fastes and most foolproof way to filter it. And comments are usually light on links.

Just found your blog on a link at Freeware Genius today... http://www.freewaregenius.com/ Enjoy your writing, and love your thinking ! Only negative (and this is ~almost~ trivial), how come only one URL link per post ? I like to provide links where possible to stuff I mention. Usually no more than two or three (typically just two). But your blog won't accept replies with more than one URL. I suppose there's some good purpose in this. To prevent some abuse or another. Still very much esteem you and your blog.

Cold murderous resolve to cause some backlash (at leisure) is more productive than being mad about stuff you can't control anyway. @JeeMan

I also hate these comment spammers (who doesn't). I wish there was something that could be done to stop these guys once and for all. Maybe we could shoot them on sight, that will stop them.
