    Hi kharrison,

    I've found a few alternatives to askimet after doing a little research, but I don't know if any of them are less prone to hackers. If you're interested here are three links you might find helpful:
    http://themergency.com/free-akismet-alternatives/
    http://www.investitwisely.com/proble...-alternatives/
    http://www.abnormalmarketing.com/201...es-to-akismet/

    I can't vouch for any of them, so you have to make your own decision, but maybe someone else has had experience with one or more of these and can make a recommendation.

    Hope this helps,

    Jim

    Hi Jim,

    Thanks so much; I really appreciate your taking the time and I will check these. Shame on me for trusting Akismet in the first place.
