A little over a month ago, I mentioned the Bad Behavior plugin and the fact that I recently installed it here in the site.  Since the day I installed it, approximately 35 days ago, Bad Behavior has stopped 226,937 attempts at comment or trackback spam.  In the first week, something like three attempts got through.  Since then?  Not one.  Not a single spammer has been able to penetrate the multiple layers of defense currently in place here, including Bad Behavior.

226,937 attempts.  6484 attempts per day.  270 attempts an hour.  Imagine what big sites must deal with?  All for some Google juice that doesn’t last more than a day or three until Google catches them.

Now that’s what they should use Guantanamo Bay for.
