    Security Breach!

    There is an unregistered user posting spams in my forum and I am not sure how he has gotten to do this! Fortunately the moderation is stopping form actually being seen by anyone but me! What do I do to stop this? How is he getting in? I have bot his IP address and HIs proxy ip address. Thanks!
