At risk of stating the obvious, I would say we had a scumbag spammer in our midst.

Re: Dirtbag
I've deleted them.
They were using proxies (probably other people's PCs infected with virus bots) so I can't ban a sequence of IP addresses.
I'm probably going to have to change the signup captcha.

Re: Dirtbag
Also please don't reply to the spam threads - it just makes the cleanup more difficult as I then have to delete your posts as well!

Ay up!
My better half, a black country wench and no mistake, has a better idea.
Tie them to a tree, scrape the skin off their backs - then rub in salt!
Seems reasonable to me!

Re: Dirtbag
It was obviously a concerted effort, because when I looked in at around 1030 UK time, the spamming had been going on for about 6 hours.
I really dont know what they are trying to achieve.

Re: Dirtbag
They are trying to manipulate search engine results. Lots of incoming links are considered a measure of popularity and quality.

Manna, if you weren't beyond any help that modern medical science can give, I'd worry about you.
IDEA!!!
Why not google "Spam sending scumbag" and see what comes up?
