daledoc1 Posted January 11, 2011 ID:372663 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Hello, Lottie:It's called SPAM.It happens on every forum I've ever seen, despite precautions by the hosts.It's a fact of life these days.I'm sure someone from MBAM will remove them as soon as they can.In the interim, here is a tip: Don't Read Them.

Guest name cool Posted January 11, 2011 ID:372679 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I agree with you on some points. But what you said is not true, Most of them are strict Forums. just like the Kaspersky forum, can not be anyone to manipulate or create topics not related 'to a forum or product issues Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tb1 Posted January 11, 2011 ID:372683 Share Posted January 11, 2011 Can someone tell me how these abusive posts keep getting in on here.It is because the reCAPTCHA verification on the registration page has now been cracked by the spamming software Xrumer Palladium and the spambots are getting in again. Due to a recent update of this program. That is why the sudden increase of auto generated spam here on the forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefox Posted January 11, 2011 ID:372689 Share Posted January 11, 2011 As stated above, I am a member of many forums myself, and I see this happen in most places.....The spammers find a way around the security, but here we have folks that work around the clock, and they get nuked pretty quickly, sometimes it may take a couple of hours for someone to see it and remove the post, but they do the best they can....

Firefox Posted January 11, 2011 ID:372737 Share Posted January 11, 2011 @ name cool I am not a member of the Kaspersky, so I can not vouch for how they operate or how they fight spam, no can I say I have not seen any there. Kaspersky is a large company, and they probably have folks monitoring the forums 24/7 if I had to guess.I know Malwarebytes has employees but I do not know what their hours are (since I am not on the staff). I am only a volunteer like many others here on the forum. I see spam here but all I can do is report it. On other forums I have more rights so I can delete them and ban users there or I can set them as invisible, therefore members don't see them till and admin can nuke them.
