in the last day or two you may have noticed that Ausbb - Australian bodybuilding got bombarded with spammers
In the past Ausbb has been running spam check , what happens is that when a person registers with ausbb their username , email address and ip address get checked against a database of known spammers or people that have been flagged as being spammers
This brings back false positives as you know with trojans etc being used as proxies some ip addresses are wrongly flagged as spammers resulting in them getting a message that they are a spammer and to contact me , i can then manually set up an account them
I got tired of manually setting up accounts so thought i would disable the plugin , which was a bad idea resulting in and influx of spam , the plugin was quickly renabled , and it will be staying enabled
this is the database we use http://www.stopforumspam.com

Im listed on your site but Im not a spammer
Firstly, its not an accusation of anything. A lot of the information that is listed is gathered from "honeypots" setup to trap spammers. Being listed on the site doesnt mean you have been sending spam. The IP address that you have, mightve been inherited from someone that spammed, someone may have just used your email address or even that you have downloaded a virus or trojan. If you use the contact page and be polite, then we can figure out whats going on and get it fixed.
