## Description

**No Spam** is a simple, lightweight and efficient anti-spam plugin.

It relies on differences between **humans** and **robots** when they visit (or crawl)
a page.

 1. Most of human visitors clients are javascript enabled and most of spam bot are 
    not. Then the No Spam plugin adds an input field in the comment form using javascript.
    After submission, the plugin check if this field exists.
 2. As spam bots usually don’t kown which fields are required and which are not, they
    use to fill all the fields. The plugin adds a extra field (with empty value) in
    the comment form and hide it with CSS styling. After submission, the plugin check
    if the field is still empty.

## Installation

 1. Upload `nospam` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
