    Just pointing out at the elephant, i guess :) - that codeproject just has been hacked. Spam has been posted in God knows how many articles, under account sflk. Correction: According to the stat, only 11 articles got spam messages in them.

        Of course it is easy to put spam on CodeProject. Of course some of the stuff has to get through the users since they can report it in most cases. Have seen it before on codeproject.

            If you find it, press the red flag and report it. Then do the same to the spammer ID, and report the message and the spammer here: http://www.codeproject.com/Forums/1652005/Spam-and-Abuse-Watch.aspx[^] The unofficial record is two minutes: Account set up, spam posted, 5 spam reports, account deleted and messages gone!
