Would that be in ‘Discussions’ settings?

Many thanks,

Hi Krishna,
When you say ‘discussions page’ where and to what are you refering. If thats the page that you get to when you select “Settings” title under the “Tools” icon then I have got this page. It lists lots of check boxes starting with “Default article settings”.
I don’t want any person to be able to ‘post”comment”trackback etc as what has happened recently as per my first post.
It’s clear that some craphead spammer did this
“Trackback on Residential #
promoting “payday loans uk”.
This is the 1st time this has happened. Being a sort of ‘newbie’ I am not sure what I am looking for when you say “did you allow comments in your discussions page?”

Default article settings = nothing checked
Other comment settings = 1st and 2nd boxes checked others clear
E-mail me whenever = 2nd box checked 1st box clear
Before a comment appears = 1st and 2nd boxes checked
Comment Moderation = 2 entered in quantity box

Does this help?
Thanks

Thanks Roy,
I followed the instructions and all seems to be OK. Time will tell.
I did the disable trackbacks and ping method.

Cheers
