Apologies for the black out of this site for some readers. I was caught out by a failure with Bad Behaviour (the WordPress spam/robot blocker I make use of). You should be able to read and post comments again now.

Why, out of interest, did you choose to go with Bad Behavio(u)r over Akismet? For what its worth, I just completely migrated by blog away from WordPress.
I *do* use Akismet as a spam filter but some spam does get through from time to time.
Bad Behaviour blocks out suspect user agents preventing the spam comments from being posted in the first place. Aside from making Akismet’s job easier it also results in a small reduction in server bandwidth and disk space usage.
