Comment Spam War

From here it looks like the comment spammers have finally declared out and out war on bloggers. For the past three days I’ve had a constant stream of spam comments added to this site. This morning there were 400 new ones.

The comments all seem to point to randomly generated URLs, so I think that the spammers are just trying to overwhelm us with the quantity of spam in the hope that we’ll give up trying to filter it. Of course they’re cutting their own throats as the most likely outcome is that I’ll just disable all comments until I can come up with a better solution.

Anyone else seeing this behaviour?
