Can anyone recommend any free ASP/ASP.Net GuestBook applications that have good Spam protection features.

How about incorporating ASP CAPTCHA? This should help to a certain extent

Are you trying to prevent SPAM bots from posting randomly in your guest book? Or are you trying to avoid humans trying to post?

If its the former,you can implment what most sites have started doing: Making the user type the contents of a graphic before allowing the post.

It would be simple to write this in .NET (as I have done for a number of projects), or, I'm sure a quick google search would produce a number of 3rd party controls that do this for you.

We've used lanapsoft.com's botdetect and have many clients that use it effectively. it's very easy to integrate in your existing application so you might want to check that out.
