 * I’m starting to get lots of spam.
 * How can I disable new direct comments (ie where you type in your comment and 
   an email address), but still keep Super Socializer enabled so that people can
   leave comments if providing they use their facebook, twitter account, etc?

 * You can use any captcha plugin to stop spam.

 * The people doing the spam are writing comments but putting in bogus websites,
   so I’m not sure captcha will stop that

 * Captcha plugin will stop the automatic bots/scripts from posting comments. You
   cannot stop a PERSON from posting spam comment.
