Here they come...
I had one stupid blog spam attack few months ago when someone posted meaningless garbage on one blog entry. Last night, it happened again. First time I thought it was some mad idiot take it on it.

To: spaininpain@aol.com
From: spaininpain@aol.com

Previous attack was also on ADxMenu entry, so I guess those are the most popular ones. Since I’m running MT 2.661, I first though “ok, you slimy bastard, you won’t get any Page Rank boost with this”. And then I saw that URL field was populated with http://spaininpain@aol.com which is useless. Typing this into browser lead me to www.aol.com and somehow I don’t believe that AOL would have any interest in doing this.
What then, was the point of this? If there was any…
