Comment Spam is a night-mare of a blog. Sometimes these creepy comments spoil the prestige of a blog. There are a lot of spam filters from which most well known is Akismet but many times Akismet is also not able to kill these spam comments on a blog.
To track and kill those smart spams, a new spam killer has arrived, it is Defensio. Defensio is now a new more smarter spam fighter Wordpress plugin which not only catches spam on the basis on some blacklisted keywords but also on there nature and style.

So far I have found the askimet filter to get the job done ok and maybe I wouldn’t mind the comment spam so much if it was on target but it always seems to be offensive stuff - drugs or sex orientated - and that really freaks me out.
I’ll take a closer look at defensio so thanks for the update.
