[wp-hackers] Comment Spam Stopped?

The beauty of Open Source is that they can easily see what we're doing. 
  I discovered today that some people were looking for StatTraq report 
pages that were open for everyone to view and then intentionally linking 
into pages on the site so that they would have their URL be linked to by 
another site.  SEO apparently is a science: become a parasite to get 
ranking if you've not got content worth being linked to.
