For me the list is empty.
If any message survived... my bad. But I went the list one by one deleting them.

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

Based on previous spam messages, I ran a "I recently joined" search query. I found these spammers (there were some more, but I don't list those because their messages also contained "hiii", so they will probably still be reported here by den2k88):
Spam[^] from spammer[^]
Spam[^] from spammer[^]
Spam[^] from spammer[^]
Spam[^] from spammer[^]
Spam[^] from spammer[^]
Spam[^] from spammer[^]
The quick red ProgramFOX jumps right over the Lazy<Dog>.

Good call! I did some more searches today and found a whopping 67 more spam/spammers, but I don't recall yours. Nice shots!
I looked for "mi40" (a product), "testosteron*", "estrogen*", "insurance" and... "soldering". You cannot imagine how many with soldering - unbelievable!

Those listed here[^] and here[^].
They're all between 7 and 9 - when they will be kicked I'll post another wave (to which I enjoyed adding other 20 spammers).

First link done
Second one I have reduced the list to the ones resisting, so they are easier to spot and to nuke

Yes, they are spam: I have deleted them, but the author needs kicking.

Actually this might be a bug on our end. Anything you see with a subsection heading of "Sponsored Article" is permissible. It's *supposed* to have an editorial note on it, saying something like "This article is for our sponsors at CodeProject. These articles are intended to provide you with information on products and services that we consider useful and of value to developers." But that note seems to be missing. I've manually put back the note and we'll get this fixed.
Thanks,

Yes - it's site driving spam. He has a number of questions as setup material, and a number of comments leading to the same site.
Or rather, he did...:EvilGrinSmiley:

The comments are still on his profile linked as active although they are deleted.
That's what you asked chris to resolve. To clean the search we need a bigger hammer

By the way, when you post a spam report, it's a good idea to post a link to the spammer - as most times us Protectors will delete the spam material ASAP, and without the link to the member they are harder to kick in the head...
