Blog Problems

I have been having problems with unwanted solicitation in the comment section of my blog. It has really gotten out of hand. I have mt blacklist, but it doesn’t seem to block the flood of comments. Too many times this past week I have signed into my blog only to see more and more of these unwanted comments. Then I set to deleting them all, which takes a good deal of time. By the time I am done I don’t even feel like blogging. So, today I thought I’d write a little complaint before I started to fight the problem some more.

If anyone has any good suggestions you can e-mail me or even leave a comment. An end to this would be appreciated. Then I can finally get back to writing again.
