Yes, on Noodle Scar Daily we get it sometimes. Another weird spamesque thing that happens is every time we do a "Health and Fitness" episode another blog automatically reposts it. They don't repost the whole post, just the text and a link to the episode, but they run tons of ads and adsense on the website. All are about health and fitness.
I checked out the website that is spamming you and it looks just like what is happening to us. -Lan www.LanBui.com (sent from my mobile device) On Oct 15, 2007, at 1:34 PM, "J.
