Got a problem - spammer

[Uncle Moe]

I have some moron submiting 100's of tgp galleries to my link list. I disabled the posting form and i am still getting them? How is that?
They are all on free hosts and alll have fake emails that bounce back. hundreds of different ones. need to stop this. any ideas. I am just running a cgi form and i am getting tired of blocking every address, since they are all different and ip's are different too.

Email the freehosts with the details and let them put him down... sure he will try it again but they have ways of cutting idiots off at the knees. Sounds like all you can do at this point unless you can trace his dialup etc and see if you could get his provider to try and help (Iffy at best there)

Good luck!

I was trying to avoid that since they use every freehost there is. but thats all i can do i guess, since i can't trace the domain or email the Idiot.

If they're still comming, he's obviously not using your form. Just rename your cgi script and hook it back up to your form. Do that every other day for a little while and he'll soon stop, while legit submitters will still be OK.
