Site Issues: Bandwidth Problems
Sorry for the recent site problems. I’ve been seeing all kinds of weird statistics as of late. Apparently the site has been under attack for spammers trying to use this site for a scam called “referral spam”. Basically what is going on is this: the spam site in question visits my site, this is then added to the “recent referring sites” and then my site gets crawled by google. The link to this spam site then increases the spam sites ranking according to google. The really cute thing is my bandwidth gets destroyed in the process. So hopefully I may have fixed this, I guess we’ll wait and see. Thank you for your understanding.
