Super Simple SPAM Stopper

Description

Attempts to prevent automated SPAM by requiring visitors to answer a question of your choosing in order for their comment to be accepted. Presumably, spambots will be unable to correctly answer this question and so comments they attempt to post will be rejected.

Only regular comments from non-logged-in users are filtered. Pingbacks, trackbacks and authenticated users will not be prompted to answer the verification question.

Privacy Note: This plugin does not call home or communicate with any external servers or services. All processing is done locally within your WordPress site.
