Comments and Trackbacks Disabled


— May 26, 2007

For the past few days, this website has been getting several thousand junk or spam comments and trackbacks every day. They appear to be coming from automated “web bots” and appear to be malicious — they don’t even try to advertise anything, and instead just seem to be trying to overrun this website or my server.

I have taken every measure I can think of to stop this onslaught, but it keeps coming. For the time being, I am going to disable the comments and trackbacks on this website completely. Hopefully in a few days or weeks I’ll be able to re-enable them.

Sorry for any inconvenience.
