I've been getting tons of comment spam on too. Fortunetly, I've come up with a clever way to deal with it. I love blogging Hemingway style.

I get tons of comment spam. Usually 5 or 10 each day, though one day I got several dozen. The one feature I wish WordPress had (well, the one comment spam-related feature) is a big “DELETE ALL” button on the “Awaiting Moderation” page.

I got comment spam as well on my blog as well. You just have to rename wp-comments-post.php to something like stopspam-post.php and edit the index.php template and look for any instance of wp-comments-post.php and replace it with whatever you typed (in this case, stopspam-post.php). Of course, this won't stop the occasional joker that enters his spam manually, but at least this will stop the automated crap.
