Is their a program out their that will post comments to targeted websites, it seems very tedious to comment spam by hand.

First, I’ve been seeing this type of comment Spam for over a year now. Second, nofollow makes comment Spam useless but not all sites have nofollow enabled. Third, there is no third…

What about the nofollow tag? I thought that made comment spam useless anyway?

It _is_ possible to make commentspam absolutely unrecognizable – but it’s a lot of work and doesn’t work as good as untargeted massspam – for now. I’m sure this will change in the future, but until then we’ll continue to see the normal and untargeted spam.
