Hehe, that should be very hard to beat for spambots! They may be able to beat things like... 1+5= ... because of usage of regular expressions. But they are currently not so smart to implement such analyzing routines. But wait, on my blog I have changed wp-comments-post.php to something different. Within the next hour I got spammed again. :( When I have "grep-ped" for that spammer's IP number I found out that his spambot pre-fetches my posting and then send his POST request to that new script URL. :( So renaming wp-comments-post.php to something unique makes no sence and JavaScript-based solutions (no advert here!) like my CPR plug-in will stop users with disabled JavaScript. :( Well, for my commenters I can say that my legitimate commenters have JavaScript enabled and so were always able to comment my posts.
