Re: [wp-hackers] <a rel= SPAM

heh. one of my quick antispam techniques is to look for
"</a>(any whitespace)<a"
to catch any back-to-back links, due to a particular spammer over the summer.


but yeah, that seems lame.

It's possible that Google, not being able (or not willing rather) to
index '???' or find the target, will permute it with the rel attribute.
Or maybe it's just miserable incompetence.

I just got two spam comments with this:

> <a rel=http://game.bucuo.net><b>???</b></a>
> <a rel=http://sms.bucuo.net><b>????</b></a>
> <a rel=http//v.bucuo.net><b>????</b></a>

(and like a dozen other links like that)

The links are obviously not clickable... so what was the point?  Will
Google index these malformed links?
