Description

When an anonymous user submits a comment to my test site using either trackback or the standard comments form and thier url contains an '&' then this comment will be flagged as spam.

I've tracked the issue down to the function wp_blacklist_check where there's a check for ascii characters < 128 in thier encoded form. It would seem that somewhere along the line that the '&'s in the submitted url are getting encoded/decoded incorrectly.

Note: Wordpress version is v1.5.1.3 (not available as as option...).
