I wonder if that was 'our friend' the 'Spammers' trying to add their trash to the site?
Just seemed a little weird.
Invasion was successfully repelled, if so.
WAY TO GO 'WINGIE-THINGIE DUDES' !!!

They're legit lookers and some things we've learned from spammers:
1) They don't want to register- That will force them to give us their IP.
2) They're looking for Email address'. Even if they do register, all member info is only available to Admins, so they can't 'scan' for new web sites and/or email address'.
3) Some spammers are using "bots" now to 'harvest' board info. Since you need to register and you have to manually put in a 'code' and you have to be approved by an Admin, most spammers and all bots give up and even if they persist, they still have to get by info #2...
4) Some spammers try to use 'dictionary' hacks. These programs will try and substitute different letter and combinations of letters and numbers to gain access. We have enabled automated multiple attempt blocking. If after so many unsuccessful tries, the server will block the attempting IP requiring contacting an admin before an account will be 'cleared'.

- JG300-Stoopydon't forget the notorious JG300 'Wilde Sau Gruppe" is stationed here at Com-C, and as one of the greatest hallmark squadrons of Microsoft Combat Flight Simulator 3 we have a very large following of other nervous flight-simmers keeping tabs on us...kind of an online Treaty of Versailles if you will........
It ain't no big thang.
