I am working on it.  These are automated "bots" that are posting to the open guest section.  I've implemented a visual verification tool (captcha) which I hope will stop most if not all of the spammers.  Having said that it always seems to be a game of catch-up in that, once new method to block them is out for a while, they figure out how to get past that and so it goes.

I apologize for the problems - know that I am doing all that I can.

are they from different ISP addresses? i know you can start blocking certain ISPs, but if they're coming from different ISPs, then it gets hard...
