Well. I have been deep in battle for the last day with some spammer from the Netherlands.....If anyone here uses King Servers.com for anything, you are in a bad, bad, group. This particular machine was pinging every single thread here and some that don't exist yet, at a rate of one per second or more often....So if things were slow that might have been why.
I banned them, emailed their host, posted something in a webby site about it, then sent Dave an email.. He found it , and fixed it!! He is SUPERMAN! Hopefully this will slow down the one idiot who thinks we are his personal playground to do what he wants with.
A BIG THANK YOU to DAVE E from all of us!!
