Trackback spammers

On average I have been getting at least one trackback spam per day. For some strange reason, they are all targeted at one particular blog entry. Manually deleting these trackbacks is so tiresome, so I've resorted to the drastic measure of deleting that blog entry all together. My .htaccess file just never stops growing in an attempt to block these spam attempts.
