For the past week i notice more than normal foreign communication on our new guestbook. could this be an organization using our website freely to communicate. Should we switch to a member log-in to keep others out?
I try and delete them as soon as they appear, but sometimes they get ahead of me. The IP address they are coming from is in China, and I've complained to the ChinaCom service provider.
The purpose of these SPAM guestbook entries is to get their web address on as many sites as possible to raise their search score. Alhough their web address is not visible to the readers of their posts (which are mainly gobble-de-gook) it is available for search engines to count, since they enter it on the Guestbook entry.
I've eliminated most of the posts by adding some of their wording to our SPAM filter, so maybe that will slow them down a bit.
