Hey fellas, I wanted to say that I am aware of the problem, and I will solve it very very soon.

I am just in the middle of moving everything from office to my home, and don't have much time to code.....

In the meanwhile please delete those posts. Thanks Smiley

Hehe, no problem to do that (giving credits) but I'll have to write more code to see who erased the spam, by the code I have to write for removing the spam Tongue

As I have some time right now (the phone hasn't ringed yet...) I will apply the first - word based - filter.

....it seems that it didn't....

I've just removed about 20 "spambacks" from this $^#&@*!&$)($&#^#~!!! pharmacy company, so I had to code a little more...

From now on, if there is not a back link to the site, there is no trackback.

Simple, but yet effective (at least I hope so Smiley )

Just find out that more than 7.000 spam trackbacks were busted this month!

Seems that a lot of moderation work has been saved Smiley
