As a follow up to this I know there's a bit of a debate around Trac  
development itself regarding editing comments.  You can't currently  
delete these spam comments unless you do it via the database.

But is it not possible to enable the permissions element that  
disallows anonymous editing of tickets? :

http://projects.edgewall.com/trac/ticket/1396

That was implemented in changeset 1516 for Trac

Just to be vindictive I also tracked down the host of those sites to  
see if they would shut it down ... we'll see.

Jayzuz this is very much OT, but I can't be the only one getting sick  
of it.
