Is there a way to configure HTML to be allowed in comments? For example, use of the anchor tag?

Ok, I found the HTML for Comments plugin and I installed it at the top of the event queue but it doesn't seem to work.

We tend to recommend the BBCode plugin, because HTML is more difficult to parse, which may lead to security failures.
In what way is the HTML For Comments plugin not working? I believe it's supposed to quote the HTML tags in comments, as opposed to translating them. In other words, <b>bold</b> will not appear as bold, but exactly as typed. (By default, the tags are stripped and the text is still not bold. With this plugin, you can discuss HTML coding because you can see the tags.)

Ah yes, I see what you mean. It was working then. I just went ahead and installed the BBCode plugin. That works fine.
Thanks!
