Sorry everyone. I was notified about this earlier today and immediately locked the offending member's account. If you encounter something similar, please alert me asap.
I should also say that the offending member accomplished this by registering and then emailing spam to members. You may rest assured that your email address was not compromised. Besides locking the account, I will be implementing some added measures to prevent future occurances. |

SPAM really annoys me. It appears that SPAMMERs register and then use a script to blast the members. The good news is that they cannot see your email address so please do NOT reply to them.
I am trying to figure out ways to stop them without creating inconvenience for legitimate members. This will take me a few days, but I am working on it. |

Andy, you're the best. I don't know how you do all the things that you do, plus take care of us.
Aloha no,

Andy,
If you figure it out please let me know. I moderate a few yahoo group web sites that some have complained of SPAM.

Hey, Ralph and Kawik's, the price went up it's, 10,700,000. Sorry Andy wish i knew more about computers so i could help you figure things out. Your like a "Father" figure who watches over us and try to keep peace in the ohana and when things go wrong, your there trying to solve the problem so the family can continue to enjoy what you have given all of us. Mahalo Plenty!!!
Me Ke Aloha

Aloha Andy,
Yep, Willy's at it again... (9-29-06 9:12 PM) that 10.7 million is sooo tempting. I'd like to give his address to the Viagra ohana.
