    For those who already tried it and found it to be not working: I made a fuckup and forgot to include a file in the zip. It’s there now so please download it again if you want it to work ?? I’m sorry for the inconvenience!

    I have updated the plugin. It turned out to DETECT trackback spam just fine but not block it. Apparently the trackback_post hook is called when it’s already too late.

    Therefore I’ve modified it to delete the trackback from the database immediately after detecting it’s spam.

    It seems to work right now except for one thing: I can’t seem to prevent the notification emails from being sent. This means that even though spam trackbacks won’t appear on your site you’ll still get the mail. I’ll try to fix that for a next release. For now the most important thing is that it does block the spam trackbacks.

    Download the updated plugin here:
