No comments! And back! Posted on February 25, 2004 This annoying MT comments spam problem is killing me! So until I can figure out how to install the MT Blacklist program, I’ve closed off my comments. I am available on email (if you look hard enough on the right hand side, you should find it somewhere)… Update: Have installed Jay Allen’s Blacklist and deleted over 300 spam messages. Am hoping it’s going to keep these evil people away… Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Print (Opens in new window) Print Blogs
Blog on TV Posted on September 10, 2003 The blog story on NDTV was carried on Monday, September 8. Thrice. And I missed it all three times! The first time I was in the train, the second I was in a shop and I had dozed off by the time they aired it for the third time.

Comment and spam problems Posted on July 27, 2004 The comments are back. I must thank Jag, who noticed there was an extra ‘e’ that had got blacklisted in line 602! That was what was causing problems with leaving comments on the blog. Though I am sorely tempted to remove the comments box, I feel it’s an integral part… Share this: Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook Share on Reddit (Opens in new window) Reddit Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window) Pinterest Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window) Email Share on Tumblr (Opens in new window) Tumblr Print (Opens in new window) Print Read More

You might want to take a look at: http://www.movabletype.org/news/2004_01.shtml#000882 They have the simplest and the most effective (albeit manual) way of managing your comments. Open for selective topic-wise comment that you’d really like to hear from people reading; and close of adding comments on all old topics. It’s lengthy but, will keep you focussed only on the open (latest/current) one =) Cheers. Reply
Oh, I forgot: do upgrade your MT version. They found some flaws in older MT (specifically XML-RPC – that allows comment spamming). Hope this reduces the number – if not all. Reply
Chetan: Ohhhh! Just when I thought it was all over 🙁 Installing and upgrading stuff is definitely not something I enjoy doing. Reply
Patrix said it all: these are the hassles of going “independent”.. us in the laps of big boys are safe from all this 🙂 Reply
Update your MT install. From 2.63 to current, its 2.66. They are brining out an alpha version 3, participate in teh testing 😛 Reply
Hey – there is one neat way to kill spam. Download this little tool called Magic Mail Monitor (http://www.geeba.org/magic/) and preview all your email. This little tool is POP3 email checker (does not work for services like Hotmail, Yahoo, etc.) that downloads the subject of all your messages. You can quickly delete all the unwanted messages from the server before going through the rigmorale of deleting them locally. Yes – there are many more ways to kill SPAM. But this is one good way to the list. Tass. P.S. Nice blog site:) Check mine out at http://tassadar.rediffblogs.com and let me know your thought. Just a little warning – I am a newbie at this so please be patient 🙂 Reply
Hi Anita, I came to ur blog from Amar’s. When ur blog loaded on my explorer I realized suddenly I arrived at ocean why? because I am new to this world. Reply
Here’s my blacklist: http://www.knowprose.com/blacklist.txt You can copy everything (don’t copy the lines with the # sign in it) and you should be current. Made it here through Orkut. Believe it or not. Reply
Happy Birthday in advance! (Sorry, tomorrow is a Friday and I’m probably going to be too busy to remember. 🙂 Reply

Patrix: The pains of being an ‘independent’! But having been on both sides, I must say that I enjoy being where I am! Thanks Olive! SP: Yes, will definitely check out the upgrade. Tass: Thanks for all the helpful hints and will definitely check out your site! Tarun: Hope you’re finding your way around the ocean and not getting drowned 🙂 Madman: Thanks for the advance greetings. Also, making you the first one to wish me! Ashu: You got me there! But I’ve been busy. Really! Reply
