  I have a recent subscriber who made a spam comment. She is not interested in my blog, just in trying to get a comment in about her business. I would like to delete her as a subscriber.

  While you aren’t able to remove subscribers from your public site you are able to control your privacy options at Settings > Privacy. There you can set a site to private and have full control over who can access and subscribe to content. We have more details about this at:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/settings/privacy-settings/

  For public blogs anyone can subscribe and while each user can remove their own subscriptions we aren’t able to manually remove subscribers for you.

  You may also want to add the subscriber’s email address to your blacklist at Settings -> Discussion so they won’t be able to post comments.
