      <![CDATA[<p>I have the pleasure of working with <a href="http://www.bradchoate.com/">Brad</a> at Six Apart and thus had the fortune of being able to preview <a href="http://bradchoate.com/projects/spamlookup/">Spam Lookup</a>. Ever since I installed it, my trackback spam has all but ceased. And coupled with <a href="http://www.mt-blacklist.org/">MT-Blacklist</a>, this plugin has put a huge dent in comment spam as well.</p>

<p align="center"><a href="http://www.majordojo.com/uploads/spamlookup.png"><img src="http://www.majordojo.com/uploads/spamlookup_sm.png" /></a>
</p>

<p>But one of the best features of all it is the uber-comment and trackback management interface. One of the best "features" is the javascript delete confirmation window as opposed to MT's HTML pop-up which just slows down the whole deletion process.</p>

<p>And one thing that is awesome, and really should be in MT-Blacklist as well, is a UI that allows you to test your spam filtering rules. It makes configuring your tool so much easier because you don't have to switch between your weblog and the tool - everything is integrated right there in one place.</p>

<p>Kudos, Brad. Nice plugin. And thank you.</p>]]>
