  I changed my passwords. Godaddy suggested I add a BOT to my blog – can’t figure out how to do that. The last few days I’ve been receiving unsolicited comments on my blog with Russian IP addresses.

  Just send those to Spam (rather than deleting them). It’s very possible your email address has been spoofed OR your email has been hacked. Make sure you use a brand new, strong password on your email.

  Thank you raincoaster. I’ll do the spam thing instead. I have changed all of my passwords on my email accounts as well.
