Linking to a pretty dubious gaming site with a reputation for phishing. Google reveals more.

I really think that the link should be removed as well as the username!

Thanks D! I'm curious about the lack of spammers lately - this time last year, they were bloody everywhere.
Are the numbers of 'bouncers' and 'inactives' down as well, D?

Waaay down, although that might be tempting fate ... I'm clearing out any spammy inactives that join, but they're down to maybe four or five a day on average.

Whaaat!!! I was taking-out over a hundred a day this time last year. As you say, maybe tempting fate but it's a good sign!

Auch, there goes the neighbourhood.
May well be that spammers are pointing their efforts elsewhere. Spam attacks on Facebook, Twitter and other social networking sites is on a sharp rise.

It does seem quiet, but I like it that way.
By the way, I put the one above on the watch list as SFS showed 'username' @ aol.com as a big spammer. Presumably that is someone else?
