I cannot duplicate the problem (but only partially). I experienced extra
comment lines inserted only when there was no space between the initial
comment line and the uncommented line, i.e.:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
# Then I comment this line out
But when I keep writing a sufficiently long line such that
# the cursor moves to the next line, a "#" character creeps in!
# and will keep appearing for the remainder of the document.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
I did not experience extra comment lines in lines further down the text.
I'm running the latest git org-mode and a recent development emacs --
GNU Emacs 23.1.50.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.16.2) of
2009-07-01 -- on archlinux.

I can confirm that Samuel's advice above offers an interim fix for the
problem I was experiencing (i.e., comment lines added on filled lines
when there was no empty line between the initial commented line and the
subsequent uncommented line --- now that's a mouthful!). I'm not sure
whether the fix addresses the problem of unwanted comment lines father
down in the text (which I could not replicate).
Best,
Matt
