Dear all...
In common with many other forums, we are currently suffering a prolonged attack from a particularly persistent spammer/spam bot.

Unlike most spammers, this one does not post on the forums, but sends PMs to other users, usually full of false virus warnings.
We are deleting the new users as fast as we can, but in the meantime, if any of you receive a PM (or email) from any USER with a name like:
Admin&Moderator
TeamModerators
ForumTeam
Lady Admin
Root Admin
etc.
Please ignore it and delete it immediately.

The only moderators and administrators on this forum are the named individuals you can see if you go to the Memberlist (top right of any page) and select "Moderators" or "Admin".

Sorry for any unwanted intrusion this spammer causes.

Just an update and a request....

In my previous message I asked you to "ignore" any suspicious Personal Messages you receive.

Although the flood of spammers has died down now, I would appreciate it if you can let one of the moderators know if you get ANY messages that are suspicious or spurious.
This may include fake virus warnings, messages from "the admin", spam or porn links etc.

You can inform us either by posting in the forum (the "this website and forum" section is probably most appropriate, but anywhere will do, or by PMing one of the admin:

Andy_P
Jolly Roger

... or mods:
sgould
gadget_sa
Lee Sainsbury


Those links will take you to straight to the personal message form. Please don't use the info@yournav.com email address for this.
