Default Spammer
I see a new poster spamming around in her/his posts.

Can anything be done about this?

Sorry about that - just moved house, then my ISP couldn't connect me to broadband. Been an awful pain but I'm around again now, and also made a few tweaks to help defeat the spammers.

And some spammers try to play the smart-guy posting "copy and paste" articles from elsewhere to disguise their spammy links.
