 * With and little knowledge of the workings of WP and computers, I am being inundated
   with SPAM messages which I believe are being attached to my Categories.
    They
   all appear live on my COMMENTS home page. They are wiped clean from within the
   normal workings of WP. How can I stop these spammers getting onto my site please
