A user can rate a gadget unlimited number of times with whatever
rating they want to give to a gadget. Before reporting this to the
group, I have tried it in a gadget. Using same ID I was able to rate a
gadget again and again. This means anybody can repeatedly comment on
gadgets and exploit the rating system to bring gadget's rating down or
up. For example, look at the comments posted on this gadget.

http://www.google.com/ig/directory?type=gadgets&url=hosting.gmodules.com/ig/gadgets/file/104342096967082496017/multipurpose-all-in-one-gadget.xml

If you carefully observe the comments and rating, you will find a
specific pattern and malign purpose. Somebody is trying to bring the
rating of this gadget down. Did you see the rating pattern? In fact, I
have even traced the guy who is playing this trick on my gadget for
bringing the rating down and exploiting the system to bring his
gadget's rating up. But I want to refrain from blaming somebody in
open forum. I want to report this issue to Google who act
appropriately after proper verification. Can anybody suggest me on how
to / where to report this issue?

Thanks
Widget Geek.
