Hi Rob,

have we been hit by spam again?! I thought that you have just upgraded the site to protect against such attacks?

Cheers,
JDF

Yep, the site is protected by several layers of security - and we've pretty much prevented attacks by robots (although never say never...)

But I can't stop a people manually registering on the site and getting access to the forum. Spammers literally employ people to register and drop spam. It's incredible.

So every so often we have this kind of thing that I have to *manually* go in and fix.

Just part of life for any site that has any vestige of traffic on it.

The latest spam-merchant logged in from Bangladesh. So now no-one from Bangladesh can get to surfski.info because I've blocked the entire country. Bye bye.

(Also blocked: the Russian Federation, Republic of Moldova)

Funnily enough, if I click on the Epic banner add above, I get 'website blocked by filter'.

Follow the path of the independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the dangers of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of 'crackpot' than the stigma of conformity. And on issues that are important to you, stand up and be counted at any cost.--- Thomas J. Watson
