Well, I found and deleted that entry in the DB, and teh flood of comment spam instantly stopped - and I'd been getting 10 or 20 an hour.
I haven't updated WP yet, but should get to it tonight.
akismet was listed as not activated, as were dofollow and a few other minor plugins - no plugins were activated when I checked.
akismet seemed to crash when I activated it - white screen with error messages - but the blog behaved fine afterwards, and no spam.
I'm hoping an upgrade will make teh blog healthy. Guess i should tighten up the security a bit too, using matt cutts suggestions.
