Not a chance. Aussies have special powers when it comes to barbewues and drinking, we can add any other task and still get ot all right.

I'm not sure if you deliberately mistyped some of that reply or not.

One letter wrong in the post. On a mobile on a train, so perfect.

Was that "barbewues" or "ot"?

Pop over here: .NET Framework Discussion Boards[^] and spam report the spam messages? They are all stuck on three it seems and the sooner they go, the sooner the spam detector can learn from them. It's stopped him getting more of that format through, but the better the info, the less chance of similar rubbish getting in.
When they are all closed, I'll delete them.

I think you are going to be playing wack o mole for a very long time, even with the reduced spam messages.

Oh, We'll not get rid of them completely, short of sending round large gentlemen with baseball bats - many members makes too big and tempting a target.
But the shorter the spam lasts, the less we get - spam farms are paid for success, not failure. So with luck they will go elsewhere. It's what, a year or so since the last flood of baba rubbish?

right thing to take care of this. Thanks!

We don't have those problems in our lab. We have way too many smoke tests.

So - you seem to be having problems with the mental acuity of users whose cell phone is permanently affixed to their paw and the only active interface between their 'mind' and the rest of the world is aforementioned phone. (?)
OK - but what's the surprising part? At least they didn't text you the screenshot as an emoticon.
