Nuts? It's getting desperate. Last year, spammers started spamming guestbooks. I run one on my homepage, and gladfully have two questions that nicely protect me against these entries (age and toothbrush color). A few days ago, I had 20 attempts within 4 minutes to generate spam entries (each using a different IP address) -- all of them in vain (once in a while, some get through, but normally these are typed in by some poor people in india making a living on that kind of work -- have to remove these manually). Nevertheless, I do get a notification email about this. It *is* annoying.
