Upgrading to WordPress 3.2.1 and Disabling Bad Behavior

I’ve upgraded to WordPress 3.2.1 the latest bugfix to WordPress 3.2.x line which seems to improve the perfomance of the admin panel noticeably, probably due to the updated database scheme.
I’ve also decided to disable Bad Behavior plugin in my site, which was supposed to block most spammers, but since the rate of spams that I’ve received has been dropping for months and it did block some of the web surfers who surfed from large organizations (probably through proxies). So, dropping it entirely won’t hurt.
Hopefully this will make my posts more accessible to others, easily.

Actually the akismet plugin is already good enough to block a lot of spam.
I am using it and it works very well so far.

Thanks, yeah, im using Akismet too… but previously Akismet has been slacking with the amounts of spams I’ve been receiving daily. So that’s why I’ve activated Bad Behavior
But recently the spams stops coming in, probably it has got something to do with this – http://old.nabble.com/Spam-bot-Spam-seems-to-be-decreasing-tt30627903r3.html
