I'd say definitely not spam. There doesn't seem to be any link between this user and the vendor, and they have been active on the boards for a long time.

and now his account is disabled...

Oh dear. This seems to be overzealous.
If the solution to a problem is genuinely available through third party software, we shouldn't really be punishing the poster for it.

They had - the account is gone. Methinks people have been a little overzealous here, and we should bring the account back.
If you get an email telling you that you can catch Swine Flu from tinned pork then just delete it. It's Spam.

I'm not so sure now - I've just done a search on this user, just looking for his answers, and they all seem to link back to Crypto.... products.

if you check the OP account name and the site linked in the solution matched to a commercial site LogicNP Software [^]

Ah.
And I see Sean has had a good look.
I couldn't check his other messages as his account was gone.

I've removed a number of the users posts. 10 posts in a single day linking to his product (regardless of how relevant the topic might be) is a no-no.
I vaguely recall speaking to this individual before about these postings, and I will do so again before I reconsider activating the account.
Thanks,

Thanks for stepping in, Sean.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

I have been learning javascript and having a doubt I post my question.
One of the member ThePhantomUpvoter posts just the comments and his comments are of 0 help..My friends have too been posting questions and this member finds it fun to comment saying,"And you think posting the same thing over and over is going to get a better answer? Did either of you debug this? Did they teach about bench checking in any of your classes? Did you bother trying to figure out what the actual output is?"... Is this the way one would react to newbies..

Please add links to the posts / publications you are refrering to

Since she has posted only one answer I'd say that it is this one here[^]
I dare to say - I think ThePhantomUpvoter was a bit rude, especially because they are new members...
But in the end, everyone freaked a bit out but no one got harmed.

Every one has the right to report an abusive behavior of a member. As I can see, the question was answered by codegirl24, which is the one who posted it, so maybe we can see this issue as resolved?

That is exactly what I think.
I reported the question as repost, but not her account. Since Phantom can do the same and she has found the solution in the reposted question - Case closed.

Hi,
can you please provide links? You can use the "Update Post" button.
It is known that there are some members in the Q&A section who are kinda rude when they post an answer or a comment for a question - specially when it is the askers' first question and he/she does not know a lot of how we like questions asked in here.
I don't know about your issue since I can't see the example. But 99% of us highly appreciate new members who are interested in our community and want to gain a benefit.
Welcome to the CodeProject!
Edit: found the link.

How about throttling the number of top-level messages a brand new user can post to 3, per 15 minute window??
The should cut down on the amount of live streaming spam.

Only from a user. But we have already seen that they have many accounts and they change them very fast
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpfull answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

You can throttle those too. Every account request comes from an IP. No more than 1 account created from any IP in the last 15 minutes.
