Spam Links
It amazes me when visiting a prominent blogger's site to find scores of spam comments and TrackBacks residing on old entries. We should know better! Allowing spam comments and TrackBacks to stay on your site increases the search engine page rank of the spammers' sites and encourages them to spam more. To check for and delete spam comments and TrackBacks, click on those sections in the left sidebar of your weblog edit screen and review. If you check the "Email New TrackBacks" and "Email New Comments" checkboxes in your weblog config preferences section, you will be notified whenever your site receives a comment or Trackback and you'll be able to tell immediately if they are spam.
