I keep getting these error messages having to do with xml-rpc.php when I post a new entry.

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /home/myblog/public_html/wp-includes/class-xmlrpc.php on line 629

Hopefully I’ve commented out the offending code.

I found a great way to combat that annoying comment spamming autobot fool at suddenenlightenment.us that’s been plaguing quite a few WP blogs (including this one) of late.

Comments have not only been disabled, but the comment-specific php files have been renamed. Lilo@suddenenlightenment.us has hammered this site with over 200 comments in the span of five minutes. Anyone who wants to reach me can do so by using the Contact link instead. Make sure you reference the entry you are commenting about. Don’t make me guess!

More on the culprit: Looking through my server logs, it appears these are the IP addresses to ban (I went through CPanel and banned these from the entire site, not just WordPress).
