I’ve been blog spammed!
I’ve been comment spammed, but fortunately WordPress caught them before they made it on the site. I wonder where I should go with this. I have the poster’s IP, so I think I will do some detective work and follow up with their ISP.
Geez, I only have this website up for a month and it gets spammed. I wonder if it’s a human that goes around doing this, or if they have a script that looks for WordPress installations and adds comments automatically.
When I have time I’m going to dig through my Apache logs and see if there is a referrer or useragent from their IP address.

Hi Alex.
I turned comments off when the spammers hit my site. But now I’m turning them back on and applying this trick, hoping for the best: http://wordpress.org/support/10/16642
