I would suspect that it's either a bot that's doing that or the same person using different names. I had that problem a while ago. And was getting pornography posted on my site.

If you want, you should be able to ban that IP address. I installed an anti-spam program and that put a quick stop to it.

If it is different real people, then it's a server issue. Some proxy thing, I believe. You'll need to talk to your host about it.
