      anyway we are not the only ones to have security releases such as Vb 2.3 release candidate 3

      i like to browse about on other forums see whats going on
      and as i suspected their boards were also hit at one point or another
      cuz they all seem to have released 'security fixes' to the board
      that adds image verification to the boards

      yabb, and Invision have it so far not seen ikonboard with it yet
      lol but no doubt they will
      menace to society these damn porn spammers :P

                I think I've got another here.....

                Just noticed 'henryguy79' had signed up, and decided to check (hadn't posted at this stage....)

                I had only banned IP addresses, and not e-mail domains - this guy has the following details:

                e-mail: [email protected]
                IP: 163.29.100.253

                  Hugh,
                  I think you're correct. A 'henryguy79' registered on my forums tonight with the same information (only difference was the IP: 194.206.1.42 on my forums). I banned the user, as I have had problems with these attacks on my forums in the past. Has anyone else seen this "user", too?

                        I got Henryguy79 as well - 202.54.30.58

                        I removed the posts but is there anyway to remove the "Last post by" name displayed in the forum index?

                          Same email address and IP
                          168.209.98.67

                          Same guy as last week, we got him early last week not much damage, maybe 3 posts. This time however got to him late around 70 posts, of which one forum emails all users when there is a post around 300 users so they got emails around 20 different times. Server did not like it very well either. Need to catch this jack ass and put him to bed.

                            Looks like our little bot friend is still at it.

                            I'm glad I installed 2.3.0 R3
