I've installed spam-karma and it does a brilliant job at filtering spam, miles better than the WordPress built-in spam protection. Thanks for the suggestion guys!

It is much better than the origional and DOES SUBSTANTIALLY better at avoiding false positives. It is also highly extensible so you can modify it to deal with unique spam fingerprints you might experience. Also, note that you may have trouble getting comment emails with the upgrade to 1.5 - One solution for you might be to update your wp-mail function in the wp-includes/functions.php file by removing the $more parameter and the @ from before the mail function call. Those changes worked for some people (sadly, not for me). If you grab spam-karma – make it spam-karma2!

Anyways grab SpamKarma, it should solve your comment spam issues dead.
