Some sort of automated spam bot has been sending messages in Chinese to every single Bean Sprouts post ever. This is irritating enough, but it means that people who have commented on the blog are receiving lots of unwanted emails telling them about followup comments, which are nothing but spam.
I have now added word verification as an anti-spam measure, which I hope should stop this particular spam bot. I apologise to Bean Sprouts readers if their mailboxes are full of this garbage. Imagine what my mail box looks like!
Thanks to VegPlotting for alerting me to the spam bot and sharing the solution with me.

Hi Melanie - so glad my message got through. And I sympathise with the resultant size of your email inbox!
Hi Mel - good to see you. I'd been wondering how you were, and whether your bees had survived the winter this year..

Chinese sex spam - I had the same thing and translated it on Google out of morbid curiosity. No surprise really but I had hoped it might have been an enthusiastic chinese veg grower!
No problem, I just deleted them without reading them. Nice to know word verification stops them though.
Can I second femsc in asking how the bees are doing? Can we have an update please?
Thanks, Simon
yes, I did get some chinese spam a while back, but the security features on comments seems to have done the trick.
How, exactly, does the allotment system in the UK work? Happy blogging!
you missed some of the chinese spam -- there's a bunch of it in the 2007 post about making greek yoghurt.
lol
great post on yoghurt, btw.
thanks!

3 new tools for comparison Google said:---
Ever since the launch of Bing by Microsoft, many webmasters have been trying to compare Google and Bing, to find out which one is best among the two. Ann Smarty at SEJ has posted a list of some new comparison tools.
Following are the three tools to compare Google and Bing:
1. Google / Bing Comparison
One of the best things about this tool is that it allows you to click through international versions of both search engines and compare regional results.
Just record them as spam. But you will be getting more mails. Not sure what could be the other best methods.
I would be glad if you can post the best way to stop this.
Thanks in advance.
You may have to switch off anonymous commenting as well.
Hi Melanie, Just wanta say the reason of what's going on with the Chinese spam is because the website of the Bean Sprouts was mentioned on one of the well known local magazines in Shanghai...so, I believe some of the comments are legitimate and some are really spams .... not all Chinese are bad persons
You mean my tiger horn penis powder ISN'T on its way? Mrs Burro is going to be very disappointed...
"Hi:
Two things
1) I’d like your permission to (re)print your article on The Goode Family
for our website
2) I was hoping we could use your ‘scribing’ talent for our website.
The Best Shows Youre Not Watching (dot) com [all one word]
The Goode Family is one of our featured shows. We’re hoping to round up a few people who can occasionally contribute perspective (via an article/blog) on the shows – maybe a recent episode, future direction, plot shortcomings etc.
What’s in it for you?
Primarily a larger audience back channeled to your blog. We don’t pay but the site has a lot of promise and we're pretty excited about getting it off the ground. Let me know what you think.
Thanks
Your blog is interesting. It was nice going through your blog. Keep it up the good work.
Omg I had my box full. But I'm glad things are back in order.
Nice to see your okay :)
