The Spam Battle Continues
A little bit of a break from the HD front...
This last weekend this website got hit with 100's of spam comments. These are fake comments generated by a computer program to create links to websites. This is done by unethical websites to raise their rankings in the search engines.
The sheer volume required a considerable amount of my time and, as a result, I've had to rewrite some code to this website to make it more difficult for these automated programs to post their links to pron (intentionally misspelled as that word hurts web rankings), casino, & drug websites.
This is a temporary fix and I'll be doing some more work over the next month on this website. Much of the work has been long overdue (more than a year).
So...excuse the dust as we go through our remodeling!
