Your Special:Version seems to say 1.4.0. :)
I'd appreciate knowing if I can upgrade directly to the current
version, or if there are some intermediate upgrades I
have to do
first. (I should have been upgrading all along, I know).
When I was still on 1.4.x, I kept up to date with the latest version, then
installed 1.5.0 and used the updater script. While you may be able to jump
directly to 1.6, the other path isn't going to take much more time. And
it's pretty much guaranteed to have been tested by others.
As for the spam, I think someone will probably chime in about the
SpamBlacklist extension on meta:
