Beware of HostCGIScripts

They registered on my message boards. Shortly thereafter, a lot of my owners started to receive spam. It looks like these bozos used the e-mail address of my registered users, and put them into a spam mailing list.

We've since blocked seeing e-mails of registered owners, but I wanted to warn you about it all the same. If you see a registered user with HostCGIScripts, ban them immediately!

Thanks for the info! Having a visible presence online has its drawbacks.
