As you know there is a constant flow of spammers on the site so all hands would be welcome to report unwanted activity.
Why not let the admin handle the problem in the first place?
One thing is that all the time they use for spam hunt is time away from resolving other issues. Users like us cannot help on too many things but reporting spammers is something we can do.
Does it take much time?
That is up to you but the fact is the more hands we have the less time is required. Protectors and other members constantly report new posts or users so just flagging the reported items has the biggest impact. As you can imagine this does not take too much time.
Is it spam or not?
You do not need to report anything you are uncertain of. If a post looks valid to you just ignore it. Of course you can also post a message explaining that the reported item looks valid to you.
So if you have time do visit 'Spam and Abuse Watch' every once in a while.

So I'm complete noob in web programming, but my idea is to write a script which does help me to go through such a list. I don't mean a script which automatically reports, I mean a script which leads me through the links. I remember before decades there was something like greecemonkey, I stringly assume the are better ways available today 
Any Idea/Input fro me how I can do something like a "Report wizard"?

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

Sounds like a case of "France is Bacon"

Or "Lady Mondegreen[^]".

I'm sure it won't be long before we can Google for things we can't remember
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

Study the CodeProject API.

Link to what? Can you not just look to the left hand edge of this Window?

Not that easy with a Screen reader

What are you talking about? I suggested you look into the CodeProject API to find out how to capture the information you want. The TreeView at left of the window is where you will find it.

Install a Screen Reader, close your eyes and then try to navigate this Forum!
If you still do not understand take a look to JAWS Screen Reader - Best in Class

If you can't navigate the forum then posting such questions is a waste of time.

Maybe if you explained what your handicap is you would get slightly more considerate treatment. As it is this is the first time you have mentioned it in any message that I have seen; or on your home page.
