Title: Nuisance postings
Post by Forum Admin on Feb 23^rd, 2006, 7:29pm

A few rogue postings have been appearing on this site in recent weeks, trying to promote gambling, pornography, pharmaceuticals and other stuff.

The webmasters remove the postings as soon as they see them.

The postings originate from Russia and apart from their nuisance value, they seem to be mostly harmless - as long as you ignore them.

If you do see one of these postings, you're strongly advised NOT to click on any links that they contain, in case they're malicious.
