I use it standalone without any other spam plugins and it works good on several of the blogs I administrate. It's strange I never used spam karma but I'll test it out for a week sometime and make a comparison between some of the different spam plugins. I still think captcha is a good idea if the spam plugin is in doubt whether its spam or ham. AJ Hey Case,

I'm not sure then because the second comment I had left did the same thing. I had even thought that maybe I had just hit the wrong number key but, I was super careful the second time and it did the same thing? http://2wahms.com Hmm … I’m not sure then because the second comment I had left did the same thing.

No, it doesn't have a time limit, as far as I know. Maybe the cookie expired? Try the <a href="http://www.herod.net/dypm/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">new version 3.1</a>, as it solves a bug. For comment subscriptions, I use <a href="http://txfx.net/wordpress-plugins/subscribe-to-comments/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Subscribe To Comments</a> Hi Anita.

Try the new version 3.1, as it solves a bug.

For comment subscriptions, I use Subscribe To Comments

I had recently installed the Math Comment Spam Protection plugin installed but something just wasn't working correctly because my readers were complaining of receiving an error page. Oddly enough though, spam comments were making it through? I'll have to give this one a try. Oh and by the way ... does this plugin have a time limit? The last reply I made, I'm assuming timed out (and it did take me a long time to make it due to interuptions). The message I received after I hit Submit Comments was that I had apparently not passed math and the question was Please add 1 and 1l. Hopefully 2 was the right answer for that one, lol! May I ask what you use for your comment subscriptions? http://2wahms.com Thanks Case!

SK2 shows your comment under one tab and your IP and domain name under the blacklist tab. <a href="http://andybeard.eu/" target="_blank">Andy</a> predicted that something like this would happen. As soon as I approved this false positive, your comment appeared here and both your IP and domain name were whitelisted. I guess your next comment will pass the filters. Others stay on the blacklist and I don't have to lift a finger! How's that? EDIT: And it sends you a nice email with the stats too! Stephen,

At the moment I'm using a math plugin (like you do) and Askimet. Works fairly well for me, but if Spam Karma's that good, I guess I'll give it a go!
