    Sorry about that

    I was away on vacation. It's a very insidious PM spam - some kind of worm that attaches itself to various senders. Members have received the 'tube' spam from all sorts of members, from longstanding members to newbies and lurker accounts. First time something like that has penetrated our firewalls. I'll have our IT look into it.

    Is anyone still receiving these?

    I'm not sure that we nailed the problem but the complaints have stopped. Anyone get another porn spam PM since this started?

    I just opened my private message box and got a porn spam. I have deleted it. It was sent to me three weeks ago.

    The porn PM spam was the beginning of August

    We think we've eliminated it from the system, but we couldn't get it out of your stored PMs. If you haven't opened your PM since the beginning of August, it may be waiting for you. Sorry about that.
