An interesting last hour or so… – Stopping spam in a phpbb forum…
Well, I was sending in my homework, and it was taking FOREVER for it to go through. In the process, I got distracted looking at the information on bandwidth for some of my sites that I manage. I found that one, my brother’s for his book Redonn had a surge of traffic this month. I…
