As our Community Forum gets more popular, so the amount of SPAM continues to grow exponentially.

As Administrator, I have to approve any comments, so for the past week or so all I seem to be doing is deleting fake user comments, directing us to all sorts of phishing, malware and illegal porn sites.

Also, Phil W encountered some "Ads" in the middle of our Home Page. We have never and will never have Ads on the site. So, if you see something like this, please take a screen cap and send it to adam@pitbullguitars.com.

You are doing a great job Adam, because I spent FAR too much time on the forum and haven't noticed....

I haven't actually seen any ads on this forum whatsoever - I do use chrome/adblock though, so I don't see any ads on the internet, ever. :)

Hi Bhull, I'm the same use chrome with adblock, I've never seen adverts on the forum.

Has anyone found an app called 'pestblock' ? haha

Last thing I want to see is Toyota, KFC and Selleys adverts !

Unfortunately, I coded a virus that goes into all PBG computers that disables PestBlock!!! Even with Adblock, if you go to the original Products Archive, the spam comments are visible. Everyone here seems to use at least Chrome, I have it with Adblock, makes sites look and perform better!
