Added spam blocking to comments.

Well I would guess that the Specialty Gamer website must be starting to get known since the website has been getting a fake spam comment per day for past five days.  By fake comments, I mean like this one:

Links have obviously been removed, but they were supposedly to websites to make money and see Adriana Lima nude.  (whoever that is...)

To combat the fake comments, I've added in a couple spam blocking plugins.  I figure that one spam message per day is easy enough to manage, but as the website gets more known, I would guess it could become a real hassle in the castle to have to take the time everyday to sort and delete all spam messages individually if I continue to get them.

The first plugin is AutoBan, which is an IP blacklist program that whenever I set a message status to "Junk", then the IP address of the message sender is added to a blacklist and banned from my website.

The second plugin added is NoHarvester, which was made to prevent the messages sent from computers that harvest comment forms and send automatically generated messages thru zombie computers.  The plugin checks the IP of the message sender, and blocks the message if the IP of the host computer is different than the one where the message was being sent from (if its a zombie computer).
