: Hi Malcolm,

: Ok, going to the forum directly worked fine. I suspect the problem
: was I was trying at work and all sorts of sites are blocked for
: sometimes really odd reasons.

: Bill H.

Thanks. I want to be sure I haven't done too much with the security settings. I was getting spammed by bots from Russia, Czec Republic, and Poland. Luckily my security settings stopped them from posting, but they were able to get id's until I tweaked the settings a little.

Man it just disgusts me. These guys are marketing firms that try to get more hits for websites by posting spam, hoping you will click on their site. The more hits they get, the more they can get bumped up in Google/Yahoo rankings. But what happened is they shut down my website and caused me to spend hours going through each and every member, deleting the fake ones... on my one week of vacation no less! Spammers are the lowest form of life if you ask me.

Anyway, thanks again.
