Thanks for reporting. The spambot's IP range has been blocked and all posts zapped. Don't hesitate to report any more.

Beggars belief why even a spambot is used to send out such cretinous meaningless gibberish.

Sorry about the spam flooding the forum. The spambots are generating it faster than we can delete it. They are using multiple IP addresses mostly (allegedly) Korean. More drastic steps are to be taken.

The machine is using random spoof IP addresses which makes it difficult but blocks are being added. A lot of the latest looked as if from Indonesia.

Sorry not enough time this morning to deal with the latest flood myself, but I am sure it will be removed shortly.

But soon dealt with. Just report them. I am trying to remember how to block entire IP address ranges so that Chinese, Vietnamese and Koreans will at least have to spoof an address. Trouble is, anyone even vaguely computer literate can do that without too much difficulty.

And a Happy New Year to you all.
