Are they leaving comments or trackbacks/pingbacks?
Yeah, sign up for a wordpress.com blog and get your API key, then activate the akismet plugin using that key. Spam problem solved.
get the Spam Karma 2 i think it is much better than akismet

SK is more likely to block normal users though.
if you really want a firewall, install both. they don’t interfere with each other, and you shouldn’t even have a hint of spam
Ok, I’ll try these suggestions and report back, but there must be a security hole if people are getting into comment without an account, no?
No. Read up on HTTP Form POST a bit 🙂
