Comment Spam

Any one that blogs knows there is a problem. It has also recently increased. On average my other blogs receive 10-20 comment spams per day. I for one and sick and tired of it, as I am sure other bloggers are too. What can be done to stop them? Well report it to the ISP’s. Yes ISP’s will do something about the problem. What do ISP’s want to be able to process your complaint?
1. Copy of the comment.
2. The IP address that the spam originated from.
3. If possible the copy of the apache logs where the spam was posted on your blog.
I don’t know how to get the IP address that someone sent a comment from - how do I do that?
@Alice,
To be honest with you, I do not use blogspot/blogger. I attempted real quickly to see if I could figure out how to find the IP address that is used to post a comment but was unsuccessful. I will continue to find out. If any of the readers here know how to do that please let us know.
