Thumbs down

My IT guys are tracking back IP addresses and will pump several thousand emails to this latest one. That should keep the jerk busy for a few hours while his mud hut gets rebuilt!

Yeah, another one of those bots, spamming all forums.

Took me a while to delete all threads.

Is there any way to put on a filter that would block all posts/thread with words such as Viagra, Cialis and Levitra?

Way to go bro. F*ck these damn spammers. I wish someone could infect their computers with a virus that would destroy them.

Our admins have several ways to fight them. And they use them all.

Unfortunately those spammers find ways around all security measures.
It's just like the guys working on anti virus software. You're allways a step behind because you react. You don't know what they do next, so they are allways ahead of you.


But compared to other forums we are doing pretty well here.

Thank God!
I mean: Thank Lomag!

Yes Lomag rules.

It is just that almost all of the spam emails concern those three "male enhancement" products.
