Wow.
Was that a e-mail? A private message?
If they are a member on the forum I can ban them.

Thanks everyone.

Looks like this spammer sent close to 5000 pms

I have deleted all of them now.

I have also set it so that users can not register using terms like moderator, or administrator again.

cheers,
robb
