I am running MediaWiki 1.5.1 on

and over the last
two weeks or so, I've begun having major spam problems. It seems
someone (a bot possibly?) is creating a user account and then editing
many pages to include spam link and/or a hidden div section. Each time,
I have to block the user and rollback all of the changes. Has there
been a fix to the problem? Please see the recent changes on the site to
get an idea of what I've been up against.
Thanks for any assistance anyone may provide,

I can only verify that this spammer is hitting a variety of wikis. He's
hit FIRSTwiki as well. I should note that I do not run that one, just
help sysop. I did notice that his attack is consistant. The exact same
text added to the end of every edit link it could lay its hands on.
