+2 from luckkyman.

 

[tjudy]

Luckymann was deleted a few days ago. Or at least he should have been.

 

[JasonC]

got another from LuckyMann today... also got a message from dixdradrani this was a completely different message target and format.. .wonder if word is getting around that we are easy targets?

 

[dwarfpike]

Yup, same two as JasonC ... but didn't open them.

I am working on getting a new security system up and running. I am suspecting that vBulletin has some built in obsolescence. I declined their offer to pay them a bunch on money for a new version, and a new system for recurring payments, choosing to stick with this version without support. One week after the last contrast ended we are getting flooded with spam.... suspicious.

...which reminds me...

Would anti-virus software companies make so much money if there were no viruses?

No offense to those working in the anti-virus industry !

Ted, there are many open-source alternatives out there, I'm sure some of them support porting data from VB...

I did not get a PM, so I must have a setting wrong. The spammer interlode92 had already been banned by another mod when I saw your post in here. I need to know if that spammers was specifically sending spam through the PM system, rather than making spam posts, so I can delete all the PM that the s/he may have sent.

I didn´t receive any spam PM
