So I am trying the WP-SpamFree Anti-Spam plugin for WordPress.  It uses javascript to prevent spam.  I’m really hesitant because I prefer websites which do not require javascipt for their basic functionality.  Perhaps I will use another spam blocker.  Or perhaps I will just resign myself to accepting that functional javascript is requirement from browsing the web.

Update: I’m going to try the NoSpamNX plugin instead.  It does not require cookies or javascript.  We’ll see how it goes.
