Sodding spammers, again
I’ve disabled user registration (temporarily) because the bloody spammers are back, and I don’t have time to do major security stuff today. Sorry for any inconvenience and/or crap in your RSS feeds…
[Thanks for the heads-up, Kyle]

How do you know if you’ve got that hidden spam that you can’t see but that causes Google to treat your site like a leper?

one day when you were away there was 1000.

It’s still ongoing. I’ve deleted a few hundred today.
Stephen, if you view the page source it’ll be in there. Assuming they’ve only hit the front page and not long-forgotten archives.

Hmmm, don’t see anything on mine. Are you running 2.5?
Gary on April 16th, 2008
I’m on 2.5. What I’m getting is mainly trackback spam, with the odd comment spam. Touch wood, they haven’t got into the actual posts again (apparently it was a registration bug/exploit in 2.something).
