Peter,

I am not affiliated with any of these products :), but here is a good link
and info on combating spam comments on blogs. I know of a number of people
and organizations using akismet and have had great success with it
http://akismet.com/

And though this link here is specifically for wordpress it gives a bit of
good info on combating spam comments.

Hope this helps a tad bit.
