That's impressive... (or not)

There's not much use in reporting these guys at this time. I already know about them and delete/ban them constantly. This is going to be a problem until the next software update.

Ahh.... bloody hell. The domain ban feature isn't working at all.

*.concho.info is banned six times.

**Will.Spencer** · 17 December, 2008, 20:29 PM

Auto-approval is now disabled.

Seems like the Sedo Spammer created a new trick:

aprovisionar.com/proxy/ , will redirect to aprovisionar.com an affiliate site, is not a proxy.

catalogoflash.com/proxy/ , to a parked page.

**Will.Spencer** · 21 December, 2008, 07:33 AM

Deleted 'em both and blocked this IP address at the firewall. (Jah, I know how useless that is against proxy users.) Also deleted four other proxies submitted by that IP address.

I was able to turn auto-approval back on recently, even though there is still an unknown bug in the domain blacklist.

Thanks for the note about these bad guys!
