Receiving comments when switched off? (2 posts)

    I was getting too much comment spam so switched off all comments thinking this would stop it.
    But no, I am still receiving comments although all posts now have comments switched off.
    How is this happening and how can I stop it?
    TIA.

    If you turned it off in your options menu then no it doesn't turn off comment for those post already made. I would suggest using askimet, it's bundled with wordpress and does a good job at stopping spam.
