Hi Buanzo

Fortunately they have not changed the URL of their store (yet) so for now 
we aren't getting any more of that spam message. I am not sure what we'd 
do if we had a sustained attack like that where the message was an image
but perhaps you would know. Incidentally -help list is unlike the other 
lists.sourceforge.net lists, in that it does not require subscription to post.     


Thanks
