Blogger Question for Those More Technically Savvy Than I

I'm relatively new at the blogging game and need to call on the advice of those of you more knowledgeable about Blogger and blogging in general. Does anyone know how to get HaloScantrackbacks or trackbacks in general working on the new Blogger? I tried the HaloScan utility that is supposed to automatically fix your Blogger template and have gotten nowhere. Any assistance would be wonderful -- be gentle, I'm admittedly lost when it comes to this topic.
