SPAM submissions to links
Somehow, my links pages have been added to some spam database. Every day I get between 5-10 submissions that have nothing to do with my site. I use my site for my computer classes and these links are for all sorts of wierd stuff. The only way to stop it is to change the name of add.cgi to something else. Within 24 hours of changing it back, the submissions started again. Some are even in other languages (Russian, Spanish). Has anyone else experienced this? Any ideas for how to stop it? Can you block certain domains from submitting?

Ok, I should have searched first... I just read this http://www.gossamer-threads.com/...forum.cgi?post=47280 and have modified the db_referrer line. Hopefully that will help!
