Scuttle Spam

Posted on 12 Jul 2007 by Callum

I installed Scuttle a few weeks ago to take my bookmarks online. I logged in for the first time in ages and discovered I’ve been spammed. I’ve had hundreds of user registrations and a bunch of links submitted. After a little database cleansing the spam has now been removed and the registration closed. No more Scuttle spam I say.

      I deleted the registration PHP file, or maybe renamed it. I couldn’t see any options to disable it via a setting so I killed that file and the spam disappeared. :-)
