I second those recommendations, and also suggest you look at two WordPress plugins that will make your life much easier:

1) Akismet
2) Spam Karma

both easy to use, and used in conjunction should result in zero spam, and almost zero false positives.

From your Dashboard go to: Settings > Discussion Then under 'Other comment settings' tick the 'Comment author must fill out name and e-mail' option, and/or 'Users must be registered and logged in to comment.' Then tick the 'Comment author must have a previously approved comment' option under 'Before a comment appears' if you are going to be able to check in relatively frequently (once a day, say); this means all first-time comments are held in a queue, but previous commenters should be able to post without any moderation necessary. Finally, under 'Comment moderation', I would advise that you 'Hold a comment in the queue if it contains 2 or more links', and also put in some keywords, partial keywords and known dodgy IP addresses into the 'Comment Blacklist' lower down (eg drugs, pharmacy, sex, freewebhosting360.com, viagra, v1agra etc). These steps should firstly prevent any spam comments getting published automatically, and also reduce the number of suspect comments which need to be manually filtered in the moderation queue. Hope this helps. Stopping spam comments with WP is relatively simple. From your Dashboard go to:
