 ;D Thanks for the warning Joe, I was on Matts site and seen the post ''Britney spears rape video''

I was very tempted but managed to sustain myself from it and went and had a cold shower instead  ;D

Joe now we know what video's you like lol if it wasn't for you my computer would be full of little gremlins now ;)

its a auto bot script

the script it realeased as a "bot" and it just surfs the net for forums, it signs up and posts a message with a link

on 1 of my busier projects (forums) it happens at least 3 times day (its a very popular forum and ranks very high in search engines, thus the bot find it all the time) the wording is allways the same, see britney naked (or other such words)

the net is full of these damm "script kiddie hackers"

the risks are fairly low though, they want Big  harddisk'd  fast servers that are on 24/7 to put "pirated software / games" on, most have no interest in the average PC user who surfs the net
