So I just got a PM from BrianRal who has never posted on this site. I opened it and it said "Test" Should I be concerned?

I would be sceptical as they only just joined today however there is no WWW listed against BrianRal. Looking at the last month of new additions. Most of the ones with a WWW listed are spammers.

We are getting a lot of spammers registering at the moment. Doug is trying to find the right balance of security and freedom to join ausmini. In the meantime we are trying to stay on top of the bogus new users. Hopefully that will be largely transparent to you all, but there will be the odd leak through as there is only so much time in a day.

So a big thanks to Doug who is taking most of the moderator actions on this front.

Cheers
michael
