Defeat automated spambots by adding a client side generated checkbox asking the comment author to confirm that they are not a spammer.
No.
This will only work with the default WordPress comments system.
No. This plugin requires javascript to be enabled in the users browser for the comment to be accepted.
The checkbox only appears for logged out users. If you're logged out, it only shows if you have javascript enabled. If you are logged out and have javascript enabled and it is still not showing then you need to have the comment form action active in your comments.php theme file
do_action('comment_form',$post->ID);
You can download any of the number of trackback validation plugins which will check the trackback before allowing it or not.
Sometimes scripts can semi automate spam and they know what the checkbox name is so they can automatically tick it.
Change the checkbox name value in the settings page to something new (like change the number) so the autmoated systems don't know what the checkbox is called any more
