Let me first apologize for the 4 months that the Message Board was inactive.
I have known for some time that our board was particularly susceptible to spammers.
The last attack on April 15th was the last straw. I have since rewritten the
board entirely.
The board should be more secure now because no
web pages exist - they are all created on the fly. That means that no web searches
will find the board or any of its messages. That should cut down on messages
that don't have anything to do with Ustica and help better protect your email
addresses from being harvested for spam lists.
A new feature is
the New Messages link. That page will only display
threads that contain a message posted in the last 30 days. It is automatic and
will continually keep the list current.
As always, please report
any problems or inappropriate messages and I will take care of them. Let's hope
this latest version gives us a break from the ills of the internet.
Regards,
Chris
