triggers new database entries and IDs
Well, those are in the spam karma tables. Why would that be an issue to you?
You might also consider running Bad Behavior — it’ll stop a lot of the junk before it ever hits your blog.
Moving on: Visit Options -> Discussion. Uncheck “Allow link notifications from other Weblogs (pingbacks and trackbacks.)” That will disable ping/trackbacks going forward for all new posts.
For old posts, you can either edit each old post individually and disable the same (check the right sidebar while on the edit posts page) or search here in the forums for a SQL query to run manually to get ’em all in one fell swoop.

I unchecked the option/discussion box, but indeed for the old posts it’s a bit complicated (I have more than 2000 posts, hu hu).
For the database, I just though it would grow my sql database for nothing… that’s all in fact (as well as going to the admin interface to periodically flush everything).
I’ll search for the routine to update all the entries directly from a SQL query.
Thank you very much for your answer HandySolo.
For what it’s worth, Spam Karma 2 is self-pruning.

Self-pruning ? (I’m sorry, english is not my mother tongue… and looking at definitions through the web, I cannot see what you mean…)
By the way, I found the info and ran successfully the SQL query, thanks to this link.
Thank you again for your kind support !
Self-pruning: It doesn’t grow endlessly. It manages the logs so that they don’t get too big and take all your space.
