e-gold does need to immediately:

add protection against robot attacks on the log in.

I suggest very simply adding the excellent so-called "turing test" 
(the one used when you create an account) to the log-in page.

That would give e-gold a huge advantage over digigold (and even 
1mdcgrams) at a stroke.



e-gold needs to absolutely immediately:

block the IP the attacks are coming from.  this is 10 seconds work.

They can trivially shut down the log-in screen against robot attacks. 
Ten minutes work.

"Most of the world's great religions are hijacked from time to time by
men who use the religious faith of others to manipulate them for self-
serving purposes. Environmentalism is different however. It is not a
religion that happens to be manipulated from time to time for political
purpose--for the power and money it can bring to its controllers.
Environmentalism is a religion which has been deliberately created, for
the sole purpose of manipulating its followers." Arthur B. Robinson, 2001.
