So the other day I was on my lunch break at work. I decided I'd login to my website from my IPhone and see whats going on. Well... I had spam from one forum to another. I had it so you didn't have to enter a capatcha, at first so that was the main reason I assume. Anyways, I figured out where all the spam was coming from and it seems this guy is running spam from here using a vbulletin spam script. http://www.gloriousaham.com/aham8/ Any way possible of getting the site taken down or what?

what do you want vb.org to do about it?
I understand your frustration, but are you asking for help stopping spam? because vb.org wouldn't have the power to shut down any site.

btw.. my url is on that list

Basically any vb board that is in google is on that list.
It seems they are now going after http://ecircleoflight.org/
It may be best to IP block this site.

It is pretty strange to have access to a spammers site like this and see how easy it is to generate vbulletin accounts and spam those forums. I wonder how they get passed CAPTHA.

Install the Force user to read and accept rule hack in conjuction with reCAPTCHA or Question & Answer methods and you should be good to go.

The bots can't get around the forced rule read and accept add-on. Doesn's stop them from signing up though.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
