I haven't seen any recent thread on a wordpress plugin called: "MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer"
I just discovevered this one and what it does:
Wordpress automaticly pings directories (maybe you have a list of 50+) this list can be found here (if you are new/beginner/newb):

PROBLEM:
Everytime you edit or update your post, after publishing it; wordpress automaticly pings your website to many dirs. and causing "spam". You can get banned for this spam, no joke = bad SEO.
SOLUTION:
A free plugin "MaxBlogPress Ping Optimizer" ; Download and install this one.
(The plugin makes sure WP doesn't double-ping your new post.)
If you don't know how to install the plugin check the following pic:

Enjoy
