Monty Python is from where I'm from! However its before my time. I think its more popular in the states now but isn't as popular here anymore. They certainly don't repeat it on any channels I get.

I run several websites, and a few of them are forums. I have also received alot of spam in the last week. I noticed ALOT of the spam is coming from Russia and China (My forums, I am not sure on this site) I have banned over 3,000 members for spam in the last week alone. I have only had spam problems 2 other times on my forums. When they hit, they hit hard.

Like he says, DO NOT click on any links that look suspicious!

I usually send out a newsletter to all the members when we get hit by alot of spam. This way i know the members have got the information. I also post a thread, like this one.



P.S. I love this site, keep up the good work!

Will keep an eye out and report it when I see it. I also have to laugh. I'm sitting in front of the computer eating a delightful thing called spam cassarole. It's chunks of spam and noodles and onions and sauce and some kind of bread crumbs on top. mmmm good!!!!
