Comments do not post on my site. Instead, pressing the submit button redirects to an older post from 2008. I thought it might be a theme problem, but it does it with multiple themes (new ones). Comments worked as you can see by this post. They stopped working after upgrading to WP 2.8 (automatic upgrade).
This is the site HERE
Have you tried disabling plugins? Could be one of those causing a problem.
Make sure for some weird reason there is no redirects in your root .htaccess file.

I'm assuming it has something to do with this hidden field in your comment form.
<input type="hidden" name="bb2_screener_" value="1246332735 71.237.165.243"/>
Probably a plugin.

It was the .htaccess file. I don't know what the problem was, nor do I really know how to fix it. Is there a standard wordpress .htaccess file somewhere?
I did fix the problem, but I did it by copying the .htaccess from my site to this one (my wifes). It worked after that. Thanks for the help.
There is no "standard" .htaccess file; however, if you have permalinks set up then WordPress will write some code in there for you.
For security purposes, you should use your .htaccess file to help lockdown your WordPress installation.
