Comment SPAM Wiper Plugin
Comment SPAM Wiper is a distributed solution for fighting comment SPAM (aka blog SPAM) that automatically filters the SPAM comments.
Comment SPAM Wiper checks your comments against the CSW web service to see if they are SPAM or HAM.
If a SPAM comment is detected it is automatically moved to SPAM folder. If a SPAM comment is not detected and you manually
mark it as SPAM, Comment SPAM Wiper will learn and in the future it will detect it as SPAM. CSW learns and improves detecting blog SPAM as it goes.
You will need an API Key (http://www.spamwipe.com/signup.html) to use it. The API Keys are FREE of charge.

FAQ
After I signed-up and entered my API Key, a message appear saying “Invalid API Key”. What am I doing wrong?
Make sure you enter the Site URL in the format: http://www.site.com. The “http://” part in the URL is mandatory.
Another thing to keep in mind: each API Key is issued for a specific domain. If you try to use the API Key for a different domain that the one specified in the sign-up form it won’t work. So, make sure that you use the API Key on the website you specified.
