You could, at least, give out some hints though. I haven't seen anything you've done that justified the univotes, but I did have a suspect (but he tends to target articles - have you upset a certain HWSNBN lately?)

I don't know how to give a hint without giving it away. I'll be happy not knowing for sure as long as Chris takes what I consider to be appropriate action.

Well not since fatboy was nuked....
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You're well out of date on that stat. Virus writing is no longer juvenile pranks, it's a for profit branch of the mafia.

I'm sure teenagers are not writing viruses anymore, just Al Capone.
Just along for the ride.

Why haven't you reported the account then? So far, I'm the only reporter.

Quite simply Pete, hopefully he'll get bored and go away.........
His 3rd account has been wiped and he is now back with a 4th.........as you will see from the message at the bottom of the article. I'm getting heading over there now 
He has also taken to leaving comments on my website, however, they are moderated by me and are not automatically published without review, so he's wasting his time there.

It looks like the same user has created a sock puppet account, and the behaviour is completely out of line. I'd suggest that the nuclear option needs to be taken against this user. Clickety[^]

Sergey, you can report the spammers as, well, spammers, by clicking on the bottom right link in their user profile.

Can someone please prevent this user ID from being reused? He keeps re-registering and spamming.

It seems that I have no EMail at the bottom of my messages, though I get answers to my post per email as well as the newsletter. Does anything need to be tweaked in my settings ?
Thanks.

This might be too obvious on my part. 
On the Forums tab of My Settings is an options called "Allow private email replies to the message", is it enabled?

I entered a rather long message in the lounge, and the editor kept repositioning itself in the middle of the message whenever I types a character. The cursor remained where it was, and I was still able to type. When I typed a character, I would breifly see what I had just typed, but the message would scroll back up to the middle again almost immediately afterwards.

As in: the text would scroll so the cursor was always in the middle of the text area? This was only when typing, not when pasting or clicking format buttons?
I'll check for double +'s.
